Shubman Gill Surpasses Virat Kohli's Debut Test Series Record

Shubman Gill has broken Virat Kohli's record to become the highest run-scorer in a debut Test series as India captain. Gill achieved this milestone during the second Test against England at Edgbaston, Birmingham, scoring 460 runs in just four innings. His impressive performances included a century at Headingley and a double century at Edgbaston, showcasing his talent in challenging English conditions.

Leading a young team in tough overseas conditions, Gill's achievement is not just about the numbers but also about his ability to deliver when it mattered most. Other notable Indian players on the list include Vijay Hazare, Nari Contractor, Dilip Vengsarkar, and Mohammad Azharuddin.

Gill's feat puts him in the company of legends like Sunil Gavaskar, VVS Laxman, and Sourav Ganguly in terms of highest aggregates for India in a Test match. He is also the third Asian batter to score 300-plus runs in a Test match in a SENA country, following Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar.
