Fans go crazy while Shubman Gill slams hundreds of captains for the beginnings for India during the Leeds test against England

Shubman gill delivered a beginning of captain to remember, slamming a brilliant century on the day of opening the first test between England And India In Headingley, Leeds. Led the team in the Whites for the very first time, the 24 -year -old right -hander accessed occasionally with a blow as polite as it is powerful – instantly winning hearts and silencing skeptics.
His sleeves, marked by Grace, Grit and a flash of fire, highlighted the maturity of a seasoned leader and the hunger of a young desperate cricket player to leave his mark on one of the most difficult stages of world cricket.
Shubman Gill slams a brilliant century
He came on the second ball in the 75th. England Josh tongue launched one outside, and Gill did not miss a beat. With a timing and a virgin balance, he looked into the half -volley and led him through a coverage point for a border – the type of shooting that defines the elegance of the test match. While the ball was heading for the fence, Gill broke out to celebrate.
Helmet, agitated arms and a noisy “come on” bursting with his lips – it was a release of passion and repressed ambition. He then embraced Rishabh Pant at the end of the non-attackers and turned to recognize the Indian fans, his arms extended largely, soaking in applause. At that moment, the Gill era really started.
Nearly the first ball
Gill’s Knock was built on the composure and class. From the moment he entered, he looked completely at control – judging lengths with confidence and sending something loose. He turned the strike with ease and capitalized on all the notation opportunities. Whether it is hitting the rear foot or driving on the UP, Gill made the striker effortlessly one day that tested others.
Its partnership with Yashasvi JaiswalWho marked a century to himself, threw a strong platform for India. But that was the meaning of Gill’s authority, his calm decision -making and the way he maintained the sleeves together that was the most distinguished.

As soon as Gill reached the milestone, social media platforms exploded with praise. Former cricket players with passionate fans, everyone recognized the meaning of his hundred – not only in terms of racing, but in the way he set the tone for the campaign of India in this series with high issues. Captaining India in a test match is not an easy task, especially in English conditions, but Gill gave the impression that he was born for the role.

A ton so chic per @Shubmangill In his first test as a captain. Came to fight in a delicate situation, but showed a great aptitude and a strong attitude to remove the team from the troubles in a position from which India can call the blows

The transition to n ยฐ 4 is there. This century of Gill was commonly, controlled, elegant and brought an air of inevitability.
