Gill smashed his maiden double century in ODIs, beautifully hitting the ball all over the ground and leading India to victory. His brave batting helped India chase a big total and win the series against Australia at the Gabba. Gill scored his first ODI century, playing carefully and ensuring India wins the match comfortably.

India went into the match without the talismanic Virat Kohli, who was unavailable because of a sore right knee, and at that juncture losing Yashasvi Jaiswal (15) and Rohit Sharma (2) cheaply was a recipe for disaster. But Gill batted sensibly and with Iyer playing a counter-attacking innings, helped India to safety.

India vice-captain Shubman Gill has allayed fears around Virat Kohli's fitness, saying the batting stalwart is fine and should be fit for the second One-Day International against England in Cuttack on Sunday.
