Shubman Gill slammed an unbeaten 129 in the first innings of the second IND vs WI Test. Indian Cricket Team captain Shubman Gill achieved a remarkable milestone in the ICC World Test Championship (WTC), surpassing Rohit Sharma’s record as the Indian batter with the most centuries in the tournament’s history.
Shubman Gill reached this feat with a sublime century during the second Test against the West Indies, being played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi—the final match of the series.
In what marked his fifth Test century as captain, Gill’s masterful innings drew applause from all quarters. The right-handed batsman, who had scored a fifty in the previous match, continued his fine form and, on the home ground of his mentor Virat Kohli, displayed a batting style reminiscent of the former skipper.
From the very start, Shubman Gill looked in complete control. He resumed from his overnight score of 20 and dominated the proceedings on day two, guiding India into a commanding position. With this being his tenth Test century, he also crossed several personal milestones.
With ten hundreds, Shubman Gill now leads the list of Indian batters with the most centuries in ICC WTC history, surpassing Rohit Sharma’s tally of nine. Given his current form, it seems likely that this number will continue to grow.
