Gill's double century puts India in control of second England Test

  • Shubman Gill led India to a commanding 587 all out with a record-breaking 269 at Edgbaston on Thursday, July 3, 2025, in the second Test against England.
  • Gill’s innings followed strong batting conditions and came during his first series as Test captain, while Akash Deep replaced rested Jasprit Bumrah and helped reduce England to 77 for three at stumps.
  • Gill’s knock lasted eight-and-a-half hours, featuring 30 fours and three sixes, and included important partnerships of 203 runs with Ravindra Jadeja and 144 with Washington Sundar.
  • Gill’s 269 is the highest score by an Indian in England, surpassing Sunil Gavaskar’s 221 and Virat Kohli’s 254, and he became the seventh player to score centuries in his first two Tests as captain.
  • India’s strong total and England’s early top-order collapse gave India a commanding position in the match with a 510-run lead at stumps on day two.
