Highest Test match aggregates for a batter (as of July 5, 2025):

India declared on 427/6 in 83 overs, a couple of overs after Gill departed, setting a whopping 608-run target for the hosts with a little over three sessions left in the Test. The Gill-led unit has given themselves a proper shot to levelling the series after going down by five wickets in the series opener at Headingley.

After getting to his 150 in India’s second innings, Gill also became only the second batter to register 150-plus scores in both innings of a Test match after the great Allan Border (150* & 153) against Pakistan in Lahore in 1980.
