Mature Shubman Gill was gorgeous vs England: Sunil Gavaskar on Headingley 127

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar lavished praise on Shubman Gill for his composed and mature century on Day 1 of the Headingley Test against England. On his Test captaincy debut, Gill remained unbeaten on 127, showcasing both poise and authority as he guided India to a dominant on Sony Sports, Gavaskar highlighted the 25-year-old's development as a batter and leader, calling his innings a reflection of how far he has come since his early days. Taking over at No.4 following Virat Kohli's retirement, and shouldering the added weight of captaincy, Gill responded with calm assurance at the vs IND, 1st Test Day 1: Highlights|Report "He's (Shubman Gill) looking absolutely gorgeous at the crease. That shot early on in his innings—playing straight down the ground—is not an easy one to execute. It showed just how well he was seeing the ball: the speed, the timing, the control—everything was spot on," Gavaskar said."We've seen him grow up in front of the camera—from the U-19 World Cup days to now anchoring a Test innings. Every time he walks out now, you can see how much more solid and mature he looks. Early on, he had a bit of a weakness around the off stump, often playing across the line and getting caught out. But now, he's much more assured," he were cruising at 91 for no loss before a mini-collapse saw KL Rahul fall for 42 to Brydon Carse, followed by debutant Sai Sudharsan departing for a duck to Ben Stokes. Suddenly at 92 for 2, the momentum had shifted slightly, but Gill's arrival helped settle pointed to how Gill handled the pressure brilliantly, first by absorbing the conditions and letting Yashasvi Jaiswal dictate the scoring. Once settled, Gill accelerated with purpose, bringing up his half-century in just 56 balls. Facing a quality England bowling attack—featuring Chris Woakes, Josh Tongue, Brydon Carse, captain Ben Stokes, and Shoaib Bashir—Gill stayed composed and former India opener was particularly impressed with Gill's range of shots and decision-making, noting that his technique around the off-stump had improved significantly. Straight drives, cover punches, and the well-timed flicks spoke of a batter in control of both his game and the match situation - which ultimately saw him finish his 140-ball century with a sublime cover moment that stood out was Gill's gesture after reaching his century—a small bow towards the Indian dressing room. Gavaskar praised the humility and meaning behind the act, saying it reflected the gratitude a player shows to those behind the scenes—the coaches, teammates, and support staff who prepare and push each other every day.'That little bow to the dressing room was a nice touch. It means so much, because those are the people you train with, run between the wickets with, and who've been part of your preparation. It was a gesture of appreciation—'thank you, guys, I wouldn't have reached here without you," Gavaskar Jaiswal's dismissal for 101, Gill took on the mantle of guiding the innings alongside Rishabh Pant, who added a brisk, unbeaten 65. By stumps, India had reached 359 for 3, firmly in control of the match.

Gill, Jaiswal tons put India in commanding position

Leeds, Jun 20 (UNI) Centuries from Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal lit up Headingley on Friday as India ended Day 1 of the first Test against England in a commanding position at 359 for 3. Newly-appointed captain Shubman Gill led from the front with an authoritative unbeaten 127, notching his fourth Test hundred — and first as skipper — while Yashasvi Jaiswal earlier carved his name into the history books with a sublime 102, becoming the first Indian to score centuries on Test debut appearances in both England and Australia. Jaiswal's innings was a classy exhibition of poise and precision. After India lost KL Rahul (42) and debutant Sai Sudharsan (0) in the first session, the left-hander anchored the innings with maturity beyond his years. He reached his hundred in the 49th over with a single off Brydon Carse, having earlier moved from 91 to 99 with consecutive boundaries — a ferocious cut and a sweetly timed cover drive. His 159-ball effort featured 16 boundaries and a six, and he departed soon after Tea, ending a vital third-wicket partnership with Gill worth 110 runs. Gill, meanwhile, took over seamlessly. Starting cautiously, he accelerated after Tea and brought up his hundred in the 74th over — a 140-ball knock laced with 14 fours. His composure and elegance were on full display as he absorbed the pressure and then dictated terms, becoming only the fourth Indian captain to score a century in his first Test as skipper. By the end of the day, he had reached 127, laying the foundation for a potential match-defining first innings total. Rishabh Pant joined Gill after Jaiswal's dismissal and played with typical flair, mixing caution with aggression. He reached his fifty in 91 balls, striking five fours and a six, and looked increasingly confident against the second new ball, which was taken in the 81st over. Their fourth-wicket stand stood at an unbroken 138 by close of play. India's scoring milestones reflected steady control — 250 came up in the 63rd over, 300 in the 74th, and 350 in the 82nd. Extras contributed 24 runs, including five penalty runs in a bizarre incident where the ball struck the helmet behind the wicketkeeper during Ben Stokes' over. For England, Ben Stokes (2/43) and Brydon Carse (1/70) were the only wicket-takers on a day when their bowlers struggled to break India's rhythm or extract consistent help from the surface. The second new ball also failed to deliver breakthroughs as Gill and Pant played through the final stretch with calm assurance. At stumps, India had firmly seized the initiative, setting themselves up for a big total in the first innings of this five-Test series. Brief Scores (Day 1, Stumps): India 359/3 in 85 overs (Shubman Gill 127 batting, Yashasvi Jaiswal 102, Rishabh Pant 65 batting; Ben Stokes 2/43, Brydon Carse 1/70) vs England. UNI BDN SSP

IND vs ENG 1st Test: Will rain halt India's perfect start at Headingley?

The Indian cricket team kicked off their new era of Test cricket without senior stars like Kohli and Rohit, under the leadership of Shubman Gill, in the five-match Test series against England in style. On the first day of the first Test at Headingley, Leeds, the visitors put on their best-ever first-day score of 359 for 3 in England, surpassing their previous record of 338 at Edgbaston in 2022. Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (101) and skipper Shubman Gill (127 not out) were India's top stars on the day with brilliant centuries to put England under pressure early in the game. India will now look to continue their momentum on Day 2 of the Test on Saturday, June 21, but there may be a slight hiccup as the early weather forecast of Leeds for Saturday shows heavy rain throughout the day. IND vs ENG 1st Test: Leeds weather report for June 21 According to the latest weather reports from for Leeds, United Kingdom, the day will begin with a partly sunny morning, with little to no chance of rain until 5:30 PM IST (1 PM local). However, the chance of precipitation increases from 8% at 5:30 PM IST (1 PM local) to 73% by 6:30 PM IST (2 PM local). The forecast further predicts heavy rainfall with thunderstorms starting around 7:30 PM IST (3 PM local), continuing into the night. With humidity hovering around 65% and wind speeds near 18 kph, fans should brace for significant rain interruptions during the third session of play. Bowlers to get help on Day 2 While Day 1 of the Test belonged completely to the batters, with the overcast weather and high wind speeds, pacers are expected to get extra help on Day 2 of the first Test. With India already having a decent total on the board, England might fancy themselves a chance to remove the Indian wickets quickly with some assistance from the weather. But they will also have to be vigilant, as India have a seasoned pace attack in their midst, which could cause trouble for the English batting line-up.
