With the next major ICC tournament arriving in 2027 when the 50-over World Cup will be co-hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia, Gill said it would be the ultimate prize for him if he could help the side lift another coveted trophy.
“Definitely, it does. That (the 2027 World Cup) is the ultimate goal,” Gill told Star Sports during the BCCI awards event on Sunday.
“We felt like we were so close last time when we were here in (2023 final) in India. To be able to get another crack at it in South Africa, it’s going to be a great opportunity for us.
“Winning a World Cup in any format for the country is the ultimate goal. So obviously, that is something that sometimes runs in my mind.”
