While his batting has been the epitome display of flair and class, the young Indian Test skipper opened up on the changes and tweaks he made to his playing style for which he is reaping rewards now.

Presenter Deep Dasgupta highlighted how Gill has adapted from playing the IPL to the longest format and have also shown good technique by playing shots close to the body.

Echoing on the same lines, Gill revealed after Day 2’s play, ” I think after the IPL and before this series, I worked a lot. I mostly worked on my initial movement and my setup. And before this, I felt that my batting was very good. In Test matches, I was doing very well, scoring 30, 35, 40 away, but I was missing that peak concentration time at some point or another.”

“Many, many people said that when you focus too much, sometimes you miss that peak time. So in this series, my goal was to go back to my basics a bit and play with the rhythm I had as a child. I don’t have to think too much that ‘now I’ve reached 35 or 40, I have to play a long innings.’ I just have to bat and enjoy batting.”

“Sometimes when your runs aren’t coming in a certain format, you focus too much, you don’t enjoy batting, you focus too much on ‘I have to score runs.’ That was one thing I felt was missing in my batting. When I was inside, I was so much focused on ‘I have to score runs.”

Shubman Gill shatters multiple records with double century

With his score of 269, the 25-year-old overtook Virat Kohli (254) to have the best score by an Indian captain. Gill now also holds the highest score by an Indian batter in Tests outside Asia. Sachin Tendulkar’s 241 not out at the SCG in 2004 was the previous highest.

Furthermore, it is the third-highest individual score by an Indian batter in overseas Tests, trailing only Virender Sehwag’s 309 in Multan and Rahul Dravid’s 270 in Rawalpindi, both achieved during India’s 2004 tour of Pakistan.

Before Gill, only two Indian batter had registered double-centuries in men’s Tests on English soil, Sunil Gavaskar in 1979 (221) and Rahul Dravid in 2002 (217). Additionally, Gill’s knock ranks as the seventh-highest individual score by an Indian in Test cricket history.

India in driver’s seat after Day 2 of ENG vs IND 2nd Test

Speaking about the match, Gill’s masterclass along with decisive knocks from Yashasvi Jaiswal (87), Ravindra Jadeja (89), and Washington Sundar (42) helped India post a big total of 587.

The bowlers then delivered early goods to build the pressure on the Three Lions. Akash Deep, who is replacing Jasprit Bumrah in the match, looked impeccable with the new cherry as he picked up wickets off consecutive balls, removing Ben Duckett and Ollie Pope for respective ducks.

At Stumps on Day 2, India are in the driver’s seat with the England scoreboard reading 77/3 and trailing by 510 runs.
