Why It Mattered

Gill was batting at No. 3 in Tests by then, and the runs had dried up. This innings, made while wickets fell around him against England's spinners, gave India enough to defend. He was out to Shoaib Bashir, caught behind on a reverse sweep after a review.

It was his third Test hundred; he went on to score another in Dharamsala in the same series. See all of them on the centuries list.
