Shubman Gill's unbeaten century anchors India on Day 1 of the second Test against England. His mature innings, coupled with a crucial partnership with Jadeja, steadied the ship after early wickets and showcased his leadership qualities.

Chris Woakes was the pick of the bowlers on home turf, and deserved better than figures of two wickets for 59 runs, but England may need to battle back from another difficult position after Gill's unbeaten stand of 99 with Ravindra Jadeja.

New captain Shubman Gill's unbeaten 114 led India's gritty effort to 310-5 against England on day one Wednesday of the second test at Edgbaston. The pressure was on Gill as India's last specialist batsman to prevent exposing the fragile bottom order in the last two hours of an extended day.
