Gill’s 119 not out from 176 balls helped India declare their second innings at 287/4, setting Bangladesh a target of 515 runs on Saturday.After a disappointing first innings where he was dismissed for a duck, Gill made a stunning comeback in the second innings.He reached his century with a single off Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Scorecard: India vs Bangladesh, 1st TestGill is now only the second Indian No.3 batter, following legendary Rahul Dravid, to score a Test century at this stadium in 35 matches.Gill hit 10 fours and 4 sixes in his innings and formed a significant 167-run partnership with wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant. Pant, returning to Test cricket after nearly two years, also scored a century, equaling MS Dhoni’s record for the most Test centuries by an Indian keeper-batter.
