ICC Chairman Jay Shah described Gill’s outings with the bat as ‘innings of rare quality’ and said he was locked in to see what plays out in the third Test at Lord’s beginning July 10.
“An outstanding Test match showcasing the depth and resilience of Indian cricket. @ShubmanGill ’s 269 161 were innings of rare quality, while Akashdeep’s 10-wicket haul marked a breakthrough performance. Valuable contributions from @imjadeja and @RishabhPant17 added to a well-earned team win. Looking forward to the next contest at Lord’s,” Jay Shah posted on ‘X’
India’s bowling and fielding had come under scrutiny following the five-wicket defeat in Leeds. But in Birmingham, despite no Jasprit Bumrah, India’s bowling unit shined, thanks to Akash Deep’s match haul of ten wickets, including taking 6-99 on day five.
Sachin Tendulkar hailed India’s strategy to enforce a result and level the series 1-1 in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy.
