Shubman Gill has created a record by scoring 269 runs in the first innings and 161 runs in the second innings in the second Test match against England. With this, he has created the record of being the indian player who has scored the most runs in a match in the history of international Test cricket. Previously, Gavaskar had scored 344 runs, which Gill has broken and scored 430 runs. Similarly, Gill missed the record of Graham Cooch of England, who is the highest run scorer in the world in a single Test, by just 26 runs.
Similarly, in the 148-year history of Test cricket, Gill has become the only player to score 250 runs in the first innings and 150 runs in the second innings. Similarly, kohli is now in third place behind Azharuddin in the list of indian captains who have scored the most centuries in the host countries, breaking the records of sachin tendulkar and Ganguly. Similarly, Gill has now equaled Virat Kohli's record in the list of indian captains who have scored the most centuries in a series and is now in second place. Not only that, he has also created the record of being the only indian captain to score more than 500 runs in the first four innings. Gill has written many histories in this way. This is the first time that virat kohli has praised him.

He posted about this on social media, saying, "You are playing well, star hero. Keep changing history. Keep going up from here. You are the person who deserves all these achievements." While many had already predicted that Gill would become as big as virat kohli, Gill is now receiving praise from virat kohli himself.
