Gill’s baptism by Bazball: Calm head, bat full of runs and a gun team

Shubman Gill’s first Test captaincy assignment, during the England tour, presented a mix of challenges and triumphs. Despite losing key players like Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah to injuries and workload concerns, Gill led India to a series-levelling victory. His impressive batting performance, scoring 754 runs, coupled with his focus on team dynamics, eased the transition from the Rohit Sharma era.
