2nd Test: ‘Magnificent’ Shubman Gill Looked 'so Solid' On Day One, Says Butcher
Gill hit his seventh Test ton - and second in as many games since being appointed as India’s Test captain – as the tourists’ made 310/5 in 85 overs on day one. He and Ravindra Jadeja, who was unbeaten on 41, also shared an unbroken sixth-wicket stand of 99 and will be aiming to extend it on day two.
"Day one here was different to Headingley – not as much pace in the pitch, not as many balls flying to third man – but that didn’t make it any less exciting or exhilarating. Gill played magnificently. He came up with the answers to everything England threw at him."
