Shubman Gill's record against England: Shubman Gill has come into amazing form as soon as he became the captain. He batted brilliantly in the first two matches of the ongoing Test series against England. It is another matter that Team India lost the first match, but made a tremendous comeback in the second.
With this, Captain Shubman Gill continues to make new records. Now in the next match, Gill will be targeting the record of legendary cricketer Don Bradman. Gill will not have to work too hard for this. If Shubman Gill works even a little hard, he will leave Bradman behind and make a world record in his name.

Shubman Gill, who is creating new records, is now targeting the 88-year-old record of Don Bradman. In fact, during the Ashes in 1936 and 37, Don Bradman scored 810 runs against England while captaining Australia. That series was of five matches. Then three centuries came from Don Bradman's bat. Talking about Gill, he has so far scored 585 runs in four innings of two matches of this series. That means if Gill has to leave Bradman behind, then he will have to score 226 runs.

Gill has enough chance to break the record: Shubman Gill has not only the next Test, but three matches left. If everything goes well, then Gill can get to play six more innings during this time. However, the kind of tremendous form Gill is in, it does not seem that he will wait for the fourth or fifth Test. His aim will be to surpass Don Bradman and set a new record by scoring 226 runs in the third match to be held at Lord's.

If Gill scores 18 more runs in the Lord's Test, he will become the Indian batsman to score the most runs in a Test series in England. This record is currently in the name of Rahul Dravid, who scored 602 runs with 2 centuries in 2002. Gill is at number three in this list with 585 runs. Virat Kohli is at second place, with 593 runs to his name, which he scored in the 2018 series. While Sunil Gavaskar (549) is at number four.
