Shubman Gill is only 25 runs shy of Mohammad Yusuf’s 19-year-old Test record:

Delhi: Shubman Gill, the star batsman and captain of the Indian cricket team, performed brilliantly in the first two Tests against England. However, in the third match played at Lord’s, his bat remained silent and he returned to the pavilion cheaply in both innings. In this match, Gill could not maintain his rhythm while batting in difficult circumstances. It was challenging for him to deal with the new ball, while in the previous innings he had the benefit of facing the old ball.

New history can be created in England

Now Shubman has a chance to create history in the fourth Test to be held in Manchester. Gill is very close to the Asian batsman to break the record of scoring the most runs in a bilateral Test series in England. This record is currently recorded in the name of former Pakistan batsman Mohammad Yusuf. In 2006, Joseph scored 631 runs in the 4 -match series against England at an average of 90.14, with his highest score to 202 runs.

Gill in second place after scoring 607 runs

Shubman Gill has so far scored 607 runs in this series at an excellent average of 101.16 and is only 25 runs behind Yusuf’s record. Gill, who scored three centuries in three matches, also recorded the best innings of his career by playing a brilliant innings of 269 runs in Lord’s.

Fourth Test in Manchester from 23 July

The fourth Test match of Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy between India and England will be played in Manchester from 23 July. Currently, England is ahead 2–1 in the series. In such a situation, this match will be important for India to save the series. Shubman Gill’s form can play a big role in India’s victory, as well as a new record.
