2nd Test: England Need 608 For Victory After Gill’s 161 Helps India Declare At 427/6
Gill, yet again, stepped up with his elegant strokeplay to hit 13 fours and eight sixes in what was his eighth Test hundred, fifth against England, and third one in his fourth innings as India’s Test captain. With an aggregate of 430 runs, Gill has become the second-highest run-scorer in a single Test match after England’s Graham Gooch (456 runs) and is also the first player to score 200 and 150 in the same Test match.
He was ably supported by fifties from KL Rahul (55), Rishabh Pant (65), and Ravindra Jadeja (69 not out) to give England a very stiff run chase, which looks way tougher compared to their Bazball standards. The final session began with Jadeja smashing over Shoaib Bashir's head for a straight six on the very first ball he faced.
