Gill hits fastest double ton on record-breaking night as India seal series
India's Shubman Gill made history by becoming the fastest to score a double hundred in One Day Internationals, clocking an astounding 223 not out in just 43.3 overs against West Indies in Guwahati. His brilliant batting display helped India chase down a massive target of 406 set by the hosts. The chase was dominated by Gill and Rohit Sharma, who displayed impeccable stroke-play and the ability to manoeuvre the ball to the gaps.
West Indies' bowlers were utterly ineffective, allowing both Gill and Rohit to display nerveless aggression. The match showcased the enduring quality of the ODI format, with India's batting unit proving more than capable of handling the challenging target.
