    2nd Test: India In Sight Of Victory After Gill’s Majestic 161 And Akash-Siraj New Ball Strikes (ld)

    After Nitish Kumar Reddy: Skipper Shubman Gill yet again led from the front with a majestic 161, after hitting a masterly 269 in the first innings, while Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj struck thrice with the new ball as India increased their control on proceedings to leave England at 72/3 at stumps on day four’s play in the second Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at Edgbaston on Saturday.

    England were inserted into a daunting chase of 608 after India declared their second innings on 427/6, with Gill’s elegance leading the way once again for India. Gill 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 well-supported by KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and Ravindra Jadeja, hitting half-centuries respectively.
