During the ongoing Lord’s Test, England’s Ben Duckett seemingly settled scores with India captain Shubman Gill following the latter’s heated exchange with Zak Crawley. Late on Day 4, Duckett delivered a cold sledge that rattled the in-form Gill — and the impact was immediate.

After Karun Nair and KL Rahul's partnership was broken by Brydon Carse, who dismissed the former for 14 off 33, Gill arrived at the crease in the 13th over of India's second innings. A hostile England camp greeted the 25-year-old and quickly reminded him of the third-evening incident in which the Indian players had charged at Crawley, accusing him of wasting time.

A few remarks were mouthed by England players, all of them aimed at the Indian skipper, following the first delivery Gill faced. Duckett then went by him directly across from the backward point and sledged him. "600 runs and he is done for this series. 600 runs is enough for this fella, "as his words were picked up by the stump mic.

 "600 runs and he is done for the series." #BenDuckett throws some cheeky comments while bowling, will #ShubmanGill silence him with a strong statement by tour’s end?

After a few deliveries, Carse came back for this third over and beat Gill with a nip-backer, causing the batter to barely move his feet as the ball hit him on the inside edge and hit the knee roll. The umpire declared him out, but Gill was not persuaded after speaking with Rahul and signaling for a review.

UltraEdge had nothing on it, ball-tracking revealed three reds and Gill fell for six runs, much to the delight of England cricketers.

After the first innings at Lord's, the captain of India did, in fact, reach 600 runs in the series thanks to his 430-run performance in the second Test at Birmingham, which included a record double century.

Gill broke the record for the most runs scored by an Indian batsman in a series in England with his six-run knock on Sunday, surpassing former India captain Rahul Dravid. Virat Kohli, who scored 593 runs during the 2018 tour of England, is second on the list after Dravid, who scored 602 runs during the 2002 tour.
