England opener Ben Duckett brutally mocked Indian captain Shubman Gill before the latter's dismissal on day four of the third Test against England at the Lord's Cricket Ground. With Gill coming into the Lord's Test with 585 runs under his belt, Duckett was heard on stump mic, saying, '600 runs and he is done for the series'.
Gill, 25, began the series with a knock of 147, joining an elite group of players to hit a century on captaincy debut. However, the high point came at Edgbaston when the youngster made 269 and 161, aggregating 430 runs to win the Player of the Match as India registered a 336-run victory. Nevertheless, Gill made only 16 in the first innings at Lord's and was dismissed by Brydon Carse for 6 in the second, leaving India in a spot of bother.

Team India's backs against the wall in pursuit of 193
Having lost Yashasvi Jaiswal, Karun Nair, Shubman Gill and Akash Deep, the visitors' backs are firmly against the wall as they are 58/4, chasing 193. Ben Stokes struck in the final ball of the day, uprooting Akash Deep's off-stump to leave the right-arm pacer stunned.
KL Rahul is the set batter but will need the next man Rishabh Pant to significantly contribute with the bat if India are to cross the finish line. The pair had shared a stand of 141 in the first innings; hence, the management will trust them to get India closer to the target on day 5.
