With 585 runs in just two Tests, Indian skipper Shubman Gill eyes cricketing immortality as he chases multiple records—some untouched even by the legendary Don Bradman.
July-10, 2025: India’s Test captain Shubman Gill is on a historic run in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy 2025. After just two Tests against England, Gill has amassed a staggering 585 runs, putting him on the cusp of shattering four monumental world records—three of which are currently held by the legendary Sir Donald Bradman.

As Team India gears up for the third Test at Lord’s, all eyes are on Gill, whose masterful knocks in Leeds and Birmingham have not only leveled the series 1-1 but also sparked comparisons with the greatest to have ever played the game.
📊 Here are the four world records Shubman Gill could break:
1. 🏆 Most Runs in a Test Series as Captain

Current Record: 810 runs — Sir Don Bradman (1936–37 Ashes)
Gill needs just 225 more runs in the remaining three Tests to surpass this iconic milestone.
2. 📈 Most Runs in a Single Test Series
Current Record: 974 runs — Sir Don Bradman (1930 Ashes)
Gill is 390 runs shy of this colossal mark. With six innings left, it’s a tough but achievable goal for the in-form batter.
3. ⏱️ Fastest to 1000 Test Runs as Captain
Current Record: 11 innings — Sir Don Bradman
Gill has scored 585 runs in just 4 innings. If he maintains this form, he could eclipse Bradman’s record in fewer innings.
4. 💯 Most Hundreds in a Single Test Series

Current Captain Record: 4 centuries — Don Bradman
All-Time Record: 5 centuries — Clyde Walcott (1955 vs Australia)
Gill already has three hundreds. Two more tons would tie the world record, and three would make him the undisputed king of consistency in a single series.
🌟 Historic Feat Within Reach
No cricketer in history—including Bradman—has ever crossed 1000 runs in a five-match Test series. With Gill’s current form, this unimaginable milestone is suddenly within reach.
From fluent strokeplay to fearless captaincy, Gill’s emergence as a leader has re-energized Indian cricket. If he pulls off this record-breaking spree, he may not just enter the record books but also carve a legacy alongside legends.
