2nd Test: Shubman Gill Gets Another Hundred, Pant Smashes 65 As India’s Lead Swells To 484 Runs
The afternoon session belonged to India, who are now in the driving seat, thanks to the efforts of Gill and Pant, who shared a fourth-wicket stand of 110 runs off 103 balls.
Gill was at his elegant best to hit his fifth Test century against England and third as the Indian captain. He also became just the second Indian batter after Sunil Gavaskar to score a century and a double hundred in the same Test match.
