Shubman Gill Creates History with 300+ Runs in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. Shubman Gill has etched his name into the history books, becoming the first batter to cross the 300-run mark in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy.
At just 25, the young Indian skipper has achieved a landmark feat—becoming the first-ever Indian captain to score over 300 runs in an overseas Test series at such a young age. The milestone came during the second Test of the five-match series against England, currently underway at Edgbaston, Birmingham.
Shubman Gill has been on fire ever since taking over the captaincy. In India’s 2025 tour of England, he’s looked like a man on a mission, leading from the front with poise and power.
The series kicked off with a bang for Gill, who hammered a brilliant 147 in the first Test at Headingley, Leeds. He followed it up with another impactful knock in the second innings, setting the tone early.
But he didn’t stop there. In the ongoing second Test at Edgbaston, Shubman Gill raised the bar even higher—smashing his second century of the series. At the time of writing, he was unbeaten on a commanding 165*, continuing to anchor India’s innings with class and confidence.
Shubman Gill’s red-hot form has not only lifted Indian hopes in the series but also signaled the rise of a new leader in Test cricket.
