Indian cricket team skipper Shubman Gill shattered multiple world records with a brilliant century on Day 5 of the fourth Test match against England at Old Trafford on Sunday. Gill became the first batter ever to hit four hundreds in his debut Test series as captain – a feat that even Virat Kohli could not achieve. Five others – Warwick Armstrong, Don Bradman, Greg Chappell, Virat Kohli and Steven Smith – had three each in their debut series as captain. Gill’s century on Sunday also means that he now has the most 100-plus scores by a captain in a Test series against England. As a captain, only Don Bradman and Sunil Gavaskar have slammed 4 centuries in a Test series before Gill joined the illustrious list.
