India are on verge of taking a 1-0 lead in the two-match Test series with a mammoth lead of over 400 runs in the second innings. Cheteshar Pujara has been the most consistent batter for India so far scoring a half-century in both innings. However, it turned out to be a very special fixture for Shubhman Gill as he notched up his maiden hundred in Test cricket.
On the penultimate delivery of the 48th over, Gill danced down the track and tonked it over mid-on for a one-bounce four to achieve the feat of scoring a maiden hundred in red-ball cricket in the international circuit. The batter immediately removed his helmet as the teammates in the dressing room stood for his brilliant knock and applauded. Gill responded by bowling his head after appreciation from his teammates.
Twitterati were quick to praise the youngster for his brilliant hundred laced with ten fours and three sixes.

Now imagine, Shubman Gill may have to sit out of the next Test after scoring this century, if and when Rohit Sharma returns.
