India Vs England, 2nd Test Day 1: Ton-Up Gill, Jaiswal Take IND To 310/5 At Edgbaston
Captain Shubman Gill scored a classy century while Yashasvi Jaiswal missed out on a deserving hundred as India battled hard to reach 310 for 5 against England on the opening day of the second Test at Edgbaston on Wednesday (July 2, 2025). This was Gill's (114 batting, 216 balls) second successive hundred in the series after scoring 147 at Headingley. He is one of just four Indian skippers to have scored back-to-back centuries in his first two Tests as captain. India were in a spot of bother at 211 for five but veteran Ravindra Jadeja once again showed his true value as a batter in SENA countries with an unbeaten 41 off 67 balls. Him and Gill added 99 runs for the unbroken sixth-wicket stand.
