Shubman Gill Surpasses Sachin Tendulkar's Record On Zimbabwean Soil

Shubman Gill, since the time he made his senior international debut in January, 2019, has been touted as a special talent.

However, after 11 Tests and eight ODIs, the one thing that was missing from Gill's repertoire was an international ton. Before coming into the third ODI against Zimbabwe on Monday, Gill had scored four half-centuries in Tests and three in ODIs. On Monday, he got to his first international ton off just 82 balls. He ultimately finished on 130 off 97 balls.
