India skipper Shubman Gill endured a rare failure in the ongoing England tour as he bagged low scores across two innings of the Lord’s Test.
Gill kicked off the marquee series with a fine knock of 147 at Headingley, and followed it up with twin tons (269 and 161) in the second Test at Edgbaston. However, he managed to score only 16 and 6 runs at the Home of Cricket.
The 25-year-old was also at the receiving of sledging from English opener Ben Duckett when he came out to bat during India’s second innings on Sunday (July 13) evening.
Before Gill was trapped in front of the wickets by England seamer Brydon Carse, Duckett sledged him by saying, “600 runs, and he is done for this series. 600 runs is enough for this fella."

Coming to the Lord’s Test, India finished Day 4’s play at 58/4 in 17.4 overs after bowling England out for 192 in the second innings. The visitors need 135 more runs on the final day to win the game and go 2-1 up in the five-Test series.
On the other hand, England are just six wickets away from registering a memorable win at the iconic venue.
