Gill’s 103 came in testing conditions because India seemed to burn the last day to save the match and maintain a series alive. His efforts were fulfilled with resistance and maturity, especially after England Captain Ben Stokes created a bold eight -time charm despite the shoulder and convulsions. Stokes removed Kl Rahul for 90 years and ended the 188-run stand that established India. Soon after Rahul’s release, Gill fell to Jofra Archer at 103. Yet his contribution secured a place in cricket history.
