Gavasakar speaking to Gill after the day’s play, said, “Yeh aapki doosri century hogi…Century ka count aapka aur badhte rahe…8,000, 10,000, 15,000 run karein aap ( This is your second century. I wish your century count grows and you make 8,000, 10,000, 15,000 runs).”
“It Was So Pleasing To See”: Sunil Gavaskar
Gavaskar said“He has a lot of time. He presents a straight face of the bat and plays a forward defense. It shows that he has confidence. His foot moves forward, and he has a solid defense, not just a solid attack. Shuffling back and forth against pace bowlers isn’t very easy. Kisi bhi ballebaaz ke paas agar time ho, usne agar apne career ko sambhaala, toh aage jaake 8-10,000 run aaram se kar lega (If a batter has time, if he keeps his career in the right direction, he can easily score 8-10,000 runs in Tests).”
In the fourth Test against Australia, Gill demonstrated his immense talent with a stylish hundred. Still, India’s batting unit failed to fully capitalize on the lead, finishing the third day at 289 for three. Gill, who batted for nearly six hours, scored a chanceless 128 off 235 balls and hit 12 perfectly timed boundaries in addition to a lofted six off Nathan Lyon to support his selection in the playing XI over KL Rahul. Still, India only managed 256 runs in 90 overs. By the end of Day 3, Shubman Gill, who had struck an amazing 128 runs for India in the second innings, was the main factor in the hosts’ achievement of a total of 289/3.
