India Vs England LIVE Score, 2nd Test Day 5: Trott Hails Gill
Shubman Gill’s 161-run knock in the second innings has earned him fans across the cricketing world, and one of them is former England cricketer Jonathan Trott.
“I honestly feel privileged to be here and witness that innings. I can’t recall him giving the English bowlers even a single chance. The way he shifted gears – hitting sixes at will – without slogging, just pure cricket shots, was something special. Today, he showed how complete a batter he is,” Trott said.
“It reminded me of the previous Indian number four – almost a carbon copy of that genius. I don’t think he could’ve dreamed of a better start to his first two Tests on this tour. Sure, he’d have liked to win at Headingley, but now he’s hopefully set up a fantastic victory here tomorrow.”
