Shubman Gill Equals Virat Kohli's Captaincy Century Record After Delhi Masterclass

Batter

Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill continues to demonstrate exceptional form and leadership, achieving a significant milestone during the second Test against the West Indies in Delhi. Gill registered his 10th Test century, finishing unbeaten on 129 runs off 196 balls before India declared their innings at 518/5.

This century marked his fifth Test hundred as captain, a feat achieved in just his twelfth innings leading the side. This rapid accumulation of centuries places him second only to Sunil Gavaskar among Indian captains in terms of speed to the milestone. Furthermore, Gill has now equaled Virat Kohli’s record for the most Test centuries scored by an Indian captain in a single calendar year, surpassing the tally set by Rohit Sharma
