🌟 Player of the Match: Shubman Gill – The Run Machine
Shubman Gill was absolutely unstoppable. The young Indian opener delivered a career-defining performance, scoring 269 runs in the first innings and backing it up with 161 runs in the second. His elegant strokeplay, patience, and dominance over English bowlers were the backbone of India’s colossal total.
Noteworthy Stats:

🧠 England’s Lone Warrior: James Smith’s Heroic Effort
Despite the loss, England’s James Smith stood tall with an unbeaten 184 in the first innings* and a gritty 88 in the second. He was the only batter who consistently challenged the Indian bowlers.
Unfortunately, lack of support from the middle and lower order meant his efforts weren’t enough to prevent England’s collapse.
🔥 Indian Bowling Attack: Siraj and Akash Deep Shine
India’s pacers were relentless. Mohammed Siraj rattled England’s first innings with 6/70, using reverse swing and consistent line-and-length to demolish the middle order.
Meanwhile, Akash Deep, the emerging speedster, cleaned up England’s second innings with a career-best 6/99, helping India wrap up the game in style.
