Sunil Gavaskar impressed by the superb Shubman Gill show in England
The right -handed Indian striker played fabulously while he scored 754 points in the series in 10 rounds, while he missed the 54 -year -old Gavaskar record, where the little master had raised a total of 774 points against the Antilles in 1971.
Shubman Gill did not score a single half-century in the series, because he scored four large hundreds of dads, and one of them was a huge double hundred which came during the massive victory of India to Edgbaston.
Gavaskar, at the end of day 3, mentioned how Shubman Gill 754 is much more crucial or more difficult to reach than even his 774 against the Bowling attack of difficult Antilles.
“Well, yes, in anticipation that he exceeded my record, I had obtained something for him. All this is in the hands of God. But 754 races – it is fantastic. The difference is that 754 races came with him with the additional responsibility to be the captain,” said Gavaskar, speaking to Sanjana Ganesan and Cheteshwar Pujara.
“Mine, I was the baby’s baby; that would not have been of importance. If I was dripping, no one would have given a hoe. As a captain, to score 754 races. More than 750 points, where he makes the difference in the fortune on his side. Do not do these 20 races; see what these 754 points have done for Indian cricket,” he added.
Most races by an Indian striker in a single series of tests
Recently, after Shubman Gill scored as many races in the longest format of the game, he rekindled the reflections on which Batter scored the most points in a single series while playing for India.
The legendary Indian opener Sunil Gavaskar stands at the top of the list with a record of 774 points in the series against the Antilles in 1970/71, where the striker was on average 154.80.
The recent total of 754 points of Shubman Gill of 754 is next to the legendary opener, while Sunil Gavaskar returns to the list with 732 points against the Antilles in 1978/79. Yashasvi Jaiswal, in 2023-24, also had a splendid series against England, where he amassed a total of 712 points.
Virat Kohli will appear twice in the list, with 692 points in the Border-Gavaskar trophy in Australia in 2014/15 and the 655 take place against England in 2016/17.
