Shubman Gill Gets A Ton, India Put Up A Commanding 518/5 (d) Score

Team India continued their batting brilliance on day two at the Arun Jaitley Stadium as Yashasvi Jaiswal and captain Shubman Gill returned to bat.

Nitish Kumar Reddy put up an impressive 43-ball 54, with four boundaries and two sixes. Wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel also put up 44 runs, taking India's score to 518 at the loss of five wickets.

The Shubman Gill-led Men in Blue went on to declare their innings after 134.2 overs. They gained some big runs on the scoreboard, which put pressure on the West Indies to catch up with the score.
