Such was the elegance of one of the shots, which Kohli sent over Rauf for a maximum, that it still dominates the highlight reels.
Sunil Gavaskar added no test is greater than the mental strength of a player who is dedicated to play for his country.
Sunil Gavaskar backs 'gifted' Sanju Samson to make it in the eleven despite Shubman Gill sealing a spot in the Asia Cup squad.
The ex-India all-rounder criticised Sachin Tendulkar for not "putting his foot down" and for not respecting Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi's reputation.
Sunil Gavaskar explained that he was not referring to Jasprit Bumrah, who missed two games during the England trip, when he made his comments about workload management.
Shubman Gill amassed 754 runs from 10 innings, which is 21 short of Sunil Gavaskar’s record of most runs by an Indian in a Test series.
Test batting is as much of a challenge as it ever was, and there’s absolutely no reason to tarnish the feats of the likes of Joe Root and Shubman Gill – who scored 754 runs in the ongoing series.
India have endured eight defeats, two victories, and two draws in their last 12 Test matches under head coach Gautam Gambhir.
"They (England) made sarcastic remarks about the batters, who were in their 80s, getting to their centuries off the bowling of a batter. What they overlooked was..." - Sunil Gavaskar
After retiring from cricket, the 87-year-old India legend settled in Manchester and still lives there.
The argument about the necessity of a new substitution rule — which permits the player to bowl or bat in place of the injured cricketer — has been ignited by Rishabh Pant's reportedly fractured toe.
With three more Tests remaining, Shubman Gill could rewrite more records in the history books for good.
Shubman Gill is the first Indian in 87 years to muster over 400 runs in a single Test. The right-handed batter amassed 430 runs, both innings combined, at Edgbaston.
Shubman Gill's performance has given India an edge as the visitors look to square things up after enduring a five-wicket loss in the series opener at Headingley, Leeds.
Together, the Indian fielders missed eight catches during crucial moments in the first match of the England tour.
Sunil Gavaskar gestured playfully from the commentary box, encouraging Rishabh Pant to do the flip after completing his ton.
About six months ago, during India's Test match against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Rishabh Pant was criticized by Sunil Gavaskar on Live commentary.
Sunil Gavaskar has questioned the ECB for prioritizing James Anderson's name over Sachin Tendulkar's, following significant criticism of the board's decision to retire the legendary Pataudi name.
This was Rishabh Pant's seventh Test hundred and it took him past his idol MS Dhoni (6) in the tally of most Test centuries by designated wicket-keepers for India.
Rishabh Pant slammed his seventh Test century and combined with Shubman Gill to take India beyond 400.
