Shubman Gill is having a dream run with the bat in the ongoing Anderson Tendulkar Trophy in England. In his first Test series as captain, Gill scripted history as he surpassed legendary Sunil Gavaskar's 732-run mark with the most runs in a single Test series as an Indian captain. Sunil Gavaskar scored 732 runs during the 1979 series against the West Indies. Sitting third on the elite list is Virat Kohli, who smashed 655 runs during the England tour in 2017. Gill also became the third Indian cricketer after Gavaskar and Yashasvi Jaiswal to hit 700 or more runs in a Test series. Former opener Gavaskar achieved this feat twice in his legendary career.
