4th Test: Gill And Rahul Lead India’s Fightback With Unbeaten Fifties, Keep England At Bay
Tendulkar Trophy Test: KL Rahul and Shubman Gill led India’s defiant fightback via smashing their respective fifties and sharing an unbroken 174-run partnership off 361 balls to keep England at bay, as the visitors’ reached 174/2 in 63 overs at stumps on day four of fourth Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at Old Trafford
Though the prospect of going for a draw is still faraway, as they trail by 137 runs, Rahul and Gill, unbeaten on 87 and 78 respectively, have given India and its fans a fighting chance of saving the match, something which looked improbable at one point.
At 0/2 in five balls of the second innings, Gill came in on a hat-trick ball with India under immense pressure, but he and Rahul – two calm individuals in their demeanour and temperament – showed their skill and immense mental toughness to have consecutive wicketless sessions.
