Shubman Gill is captaining Team India in the Test series against England. He made his Under -19 debut on December 18, 2016. England veteran batsman Joe Root scored only 4594 runs in Tests at that time and he had only 11 centuries in his name. Now he has scored more than 13000 runs and he has 38 centuries.
First half -century in England Test series
This is Karun Nair’s first half -century in the 5 -match Test series against England. He got a start in some matches but Nair could not convert him into a big score. However, in the fifth Test, he scored 57 runs for his team. It is very important for Team India to win this match. This is because England is ahead 2–1 in the Test series and if India has to match it, they will have to win the fifth Test.
