IND vs ENG: Gill will break Don Bradman's world record, 88 year old record will be shattered!

IND vs ENG: Shubman Gill has created a stir in the cricket world with his batting as soon as he took over the captaincy of the Indian Test team. In the ongoing Test series against England, Gill has performed brilliantly in the first two matches. Even though Team India lost the first match, India made a tremendous comeback under Gill's leadership in the second Test. During this, Gill is not only scoring runs, but also setting new records. Now his next target is the 88-year-old record of cricket legend Sir Don Bradman. If Gill shows a little more hard work, he can create history by leaving Bradman behind.

Most runs as captain in a Test series

During the Ashes series in 1936-37, Australia captain Don Bradman scored 810 runs in five Tests against England. During this, three centuries came out of his bat. On the other hand, Shubman Gill has scored 585 runs in four innings of two Test matches of the current series. That is, Gill needs only 226 runs to break Bradman's record. Looking at Gill's current form, this target looks absolutely achievable.

Gill has a golden opportunity to break the record

Shubhman Gill has not only the next Test but also three more Tests left in this series. If everything goes well, Gill may get a chance to play at least six more innings. The kind of tremendous form Gill is in, it seems that he will not wait for the fourth or fifth Test. He will try to break Bradman's record by scoring 226 runs in the third Test to be held at Lord's and make a new record in his name.

Unique similarity between Gill and Bradman

Interestingly, when Don Bradman made this record in 1936, he was also captaining the Australian team for the first time. The story is exactly the same with Shubhman Gill. He is leading the Indian Test team for the first time and at the same time is setting a flurry of records. This coincidence makes Gill's achievement even more special.

Another Bradman record in the target

Apart from the captaincy record, if we talk about scoring the most runs in a Test series as a batsman, then Don Bradman is also at the top in that. Bradman scored 974 runs in the 1930 Ashes series. If Shubman Gill scores 391 more runs in this series, then he will surpass Bradman in this matter as well and become the highest run-scorer in history.

Will Gill be able to create history?

Looking at Shubman Gill's current form and confidence, it would not be wrong to say that he is fully prepared to set new records in cricket history. Now the eyes of cricket lovers are fixed on whether Gill is able to break Bradman's record in the third Test or not. If Gill maintains his rhythm, not only will Bradman's record be broken, but Gill's name will also be written in golden letters in cricket history.
