Team India captain Shubman Gill, who is running a continuous run in the Test series against England, has retained the process of breaking the record. Gill, who had already set many records in the first 2 matches played in Leeds and Birmingham, continued this process in Lord’s. This time Gill broke the 7 -year -old record of former captain Virat Kohli and became the Indian captain to score the most runs in England. But this time Gill caught in the trap of England so much that he had to return cheaply.
Team India started batting after stopping England for 387 runs on the second day of the Lord’s Test match. This time the Indian team started poorly and Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed in the second over itself. Jofra Archer made him his victim, who returned to Test cricket after 4 years and 5 months. After this, KL Rahul and Karun Nair made a good partnership. But Karun could not change a good start to a big score again.
Captain Gill landed for batting after Nair was dismissed in the third session of the day. After 147 runs in the first innings of the Leeds Test, Gill, who played 269 runs in the Birmingham Test and 161 runs innings, was expected to do something this time. The Indian captain also made a strong start and as soon as his 9 runs were completed, he broke Kohli’s record. Kohli scored 593 runs as a captain on the 2018 tour of England, which was the record of any Indian captain. Gill completed this record as soon as he completed 9 runs.
