Top 3 Virat Kohli records that Shubman Gill could break in upcoming matches
Gill registered an aggregate of 430 runs with fantastic outings in both innings of the second Test of the 2025 edition of the series against England.
Shubman Gill has been in sublime form in the ongoing five-match Test series between England and India so far. In the two Tests played, barring one low score, the Indian red-ball skipper has registered scores of 147, 269, and 161. With his sensational outings in the second game in particular, he broke quite a few records in the Test arena which were intact up until very recently.
The cricket community has never quite spared Gill in comparing him with the likes of Virat Kohli. The Punjab batter has always displayed that class which the recently-retired Kohli used to have while batting for the red-ball unit at No. 4. However, it was only until recently that that prowess has come to light completely. With the way Gill has been batting so far, it could be anticipated that he breaks many more records in the future. Today, let's discuss a few of them
Top 3 Kohli records Gill could break in upcoming matches
3. Most Test hundreds by an Indian captain in SENA countries
Kohli heads the list of the most Test tons to be scored by Indian captains in SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand, Australia) countries. Gill has already overtaken the likes of Sunil Gavaskar, Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, and Ajinkya Rahane, who had all scored one while leading the side.
With a long career in sight for the talented batter, the 25-year-old could be expected to overtake Kohli in this aspect. In his storied career, Kohli had scored a total of seven Test tons in SENA countries while also being the leader in those games.
