Opening batter Shubman Gill registered his maiden Test hundred on the third day of the opening Test match of the series against Bangladesh.
Gill scored his century from 152 deliveries with 10 boundaries and three maximums in the innings as India toyed with Bangladesh bowling.
Gill danced down the track to Mehidy Hasan to tonk the ball over mid-on for a boundary and reached his century in style.
Gill celebrated with a raised bat and bowed down subsequently to acknowledge the dressing room wherein everyone stood up to honour the maiden century.
Gill hit the century in the 12th Test of his career after having managed four half-centuries earlier with a best score of 91 against Australia in 2021. The innings at Gabba was considered to be a heartbreak of sorts as Gill missed out on the century for nine runs.
See how Gill reached his century –
The firsts are always special ๐@ShubmanGill scores his first test ๐ฏ showcasing some excellent batting skills along the way ๐

Wasim Jaffer applauded Gill’s century mentioning the fact that he has not been given consistent opportunities.
When the opportunities are few and far between that’s how you make it count. Congratulations on maiden Test ton @ShubmanGill ๐๐ฝ #BANvIND pic.twitter.com/FV8A4uZdHW

Happens to be the first Test 100 by an Indian opener this year. And probably the first of many more to come in @ShubmanGill ‘s Test career #IndvsBan
