Indian skipper Shubman Gill carried his rich vein of form into the ongoing Test series, bringing up yet another hundred against the West Indies at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The Indian captain looked composed and confident from the moment he walked out to bat in the final session of Day 1, getting off the mark with a crisp boundary and never looking back since.
Coming off a fine fifty in the opening Test at Ahmedabad, Gill continued his golden touch with the bat. He initially played the perfect supporting role to Yashasvi Jaiswal, who produced a brilliant 175 off 258 deliveries.
After a mix-up that led to Jaiswal’s unfortunate run-out, Gill took charge of the innings, shifting gears effortlessly. With elegant stroke play and calculated aggression, the Indian skipper thrilled the Delhi crowd and guided his team into a commanding position.
Resuming from his overnight score of 20, Shubman Gill first brought up a fluent fifty before converting it into a magnificent hundred. He reached his tenth Test century in 177 balls, showcasing remarkable composure and precision.
Since assuming the captaincy, Gill has been in sublime form with the bat. After taking charge of the team in England, he amassed 754 runs in his debut series as captain, including four centuries. Continuing that rich vein of form, he has once again delivered brilliantly in the ongoing West Indies series.

Shubman Gill is the current best batter in this modern era when it comes to batting on flat pitches. On flat pitches this man is dangerous as anyone playing this game. Well played 💯. Give this man flat pitches to bat on and he'll break every record of Sachin Tendulkar. pic.twitter.com/MDX00dDqom
