Shubman Gill broke the world record (photo-PTI)
Shubman Gill has not only rained runs in the Test series against England, but he has also broken many records. Shubman Gill did something similar on the first day of the oval test. The captain of the Indian team defeated two veteran batsmen in the first innings of the Oval Test. The first name is Gary Sobers and the second is Sunil Gavaskar. As soon as Shubman Gill scored two runs at the Oval, he defeated Gary Sobers and became India’s number 1 captain in a particular case as soon as he scored 11 runs. Let us tell you what records have actually broken by Shubman Gill.
Gill became number 1 Indian captain in this case
As soon as Shubman Gill scored 11 runs, he became the player to score the most runs as an Indian captain in a Test series. Sunil Gavaskar scored 732 runs against the West Indies in 1948-49, now Gill has overtaken him. Not only this, Gill also achieved the distinction of becoming the captain who scored the most runs in a series in SENA countries.

Now this record on Shubman’s target
Shubman Gill’s target now has two more big records. Sunil Gavaskar scored 774 runs in a series and now Shubman Gill is not far behind him. At the same time, if Gill scored 811 runs, he will beat Don Bradman. Bradman holds the record of scoring the most runs in England in a series. This record has been persisted for the last 90 years and now Gill can break it.
