India captain Shubman Gill has rewritten the record books, amassing a staggering 269 runs in the first innings of the Test match against England. This performance was not just a personal milestone for Gill, but a historic moment for Indian cricket—he became the first Indian to score over 250 runs in a single Test innings outside his homeland.

In the second innings, he added another 161 runs, setting a new record for an Asian batter. This is the second-highest aggregate in Test history, trailing only Graham Gooch's 456 runs against India in 1990.

This match was not just another chapter in his career, but the dawn of a new era for Indian cricket. If Gill keeps up this form, the cricketing world will no doubt continue to speak of him as one of the game's greats.
