SHUBMAN GILL photo file. Indian cricket SHUBMAN GILL already makes history in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar trophy against England. He received an impressive 585 runs of only two tests, including a record performance in Edgbaston with a score of 269 and 161. Now he looks at several world records set by the legendary Don Bradman almost a century ago.Gill’s excellent performance in Edgbaston helped India to balance a series of five matches. His remarkable shifts were broken by several records, including overcoming the highest score of Virat Kohli as the Indian captain and the Sunil Gavascar record for most Indian runs in the test match. He also became the first Asian captain to win a double century in hay countries (South Africa, England, New Zealand, Australia).

The Don Bradman Records that SHUBMAN GILL can break downWith the three remaining tests, Gill needs only 225 runs to break Bradman’s record of 810 runs as a captain in the series set up during the ashes of 1936-37.It is also within reach of Bradman’s record 974 runs in one series AK achieve this performance 390 other runs.It could become the fastest to achieve 1000 test runs as a captain and needed 415 runs in its other six shifts to beat Bradman’s record of achieving this in 11 shifts.Gill’s impressive strip of shape saw him hit for three centuries in the first two tests and built him behind the Legend of West Indies Clyde Walcott, which in 1955 scored five centuries in a series against Australia. While Walcott remains the only player to achieve this performance, Gill has the potential to match or even exceed. Meanwhile, Bradman’s best was as a captain in a series of four centuries, which was reached against India in 1947. Gill is shy for two centuries that this record corresponds.Former Indian captain Dilip Vengsarkar expressed optimism about Gill’s chances and said, “I hope he will do it. I don’t know if he will do it, but I’m sure he has the opportunity. He’s in great shape and should do it, that’s what I feel.”Other records that Gill can overworkThe young captain also closes on several Indian records.
- It needs 148 runs to break Gavascar’s record of most runs in the Indian Captain series (732 runs).
- Gill hitchhiking his Indian teammate Yashasvi Jaiswal’s 712 runs, most of the Indians’ runs against England in any series, 127 runs.
- It is only 18 runs from 602 Rahula David runs – the most Indian dough in the test series in England.
- Gill already has several milestones next to Kohl. With 91 runs would break the record of a former tested player 655 runs as an Indian captain against England.
What makes Gill’s success even more impressive is that Bradman’s beginning in the 1930 series and recorded 585 runs in the first two tests compared to Bradman’s 394. This remarkable form suggests that he could continue his record breakage in the remaining three matches.
