Video: Shubman Gill Roars After Defiant 100 On Day 5 Of IND vs ENG 4th Test, Joins Sunil Gavaskar & Don Bradman In Elite Class

Team India captain Shubman Gill stood tall, reaching a defiant hundred on day five of the fourth Test against England at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground in Manchester. The right-handed batter roared after reaching the three-figure mark against some brilliant bowling by England as he kept Team India fighting under some trying circumstances.

Although the right-handed batter had scored 269 and 161 at Edgbaston, England have managed to keep him quiet as the youngster managed scores of 16 and 6 at the Lord's Cricket Ground. Ben Stokes got the better of his opposite number in the first innings in Manchester only for 22. Additionally, the Punjab-born cricketer walked out at 0/2 after Chris Woakes dismissed B Sai Sudharsan and Yashasvi Jaiswal, with the tourists leading by 311.

Watch the moment:

It is also the 25-year-old's fourth hundred of the series, having started it with 147 at the Headingley in Leeds. As a result, he has joined Sunil Gavaskar and Don Bradman for most hundreds in a series by a captain.

Nevertheless, the youngster's stay didn't last long as Jofra Archer got him to nick to the keeper by throwing in a wide delivery. The moment occurred an over before the players walked off for lunch. Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja will walk out after the lunch break as the tourists still trail by 88 runs. Within the first session of play on day five, Ben Stokes had trapped KL Rahul lbw for 90.

Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant has been confirmed to bat on day five as India's batting coach Sitanshu Kotak confirmed after the presser on day four's play. India will be desperate for the keeper-batter to come out and play as much deliveries he can to help the side salvage a draw.
