Shubman Gill Breaks Records in Edgbaston Test

India took control of the second Test against England at Edgbaston, led by captain Shubman Gill's record-breaking 269—the highest score by an Indian in England and outside Asia, surpassing legends like Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli. Gill's innings, which included 30 fours and 3 sixes, featured significant partnerships with Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar, allowing India to post a total of 587. He also became the first Asian captain to score a double century in SENA countries and the second-youngest Indian captain to achieve the feat. England ended Day 2 at 77/3 after early wickets from Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj, trailing by 510 runs. England's assistant coach acknowledged feeling physically and mentally drained by India's commanding performance. India is now well positioned for a series-leveling win.
