The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad was transformed into a cauldron of excitement as Indian batter Shubman Gill delivered a breathtaking century during the third One Day International (ODI) against England. His performance not only propelled India to a strong position in the match but also sent the fans into a wild celebration.
Shubman Gill hits his 7th ODI ton
Gill, the young prodigy of Indian cricket, showcased his class by reaching his 7th hundred in just 87 deliveries, a feat that was met with thunderous applause from the packed stands. His innings was a masterclass in modern-day batting, blending traditional technique with innovative shot-making, which included 14 fours and 3 towering sixes.
The atmosphere in the stadium was already vibrant due to the ongoing “Donate Organs, Save Lives” campaign by the BCCI, where players from both teams wore green armbands in solidarity. However, Gill’s entry to the crease added an extra layer of excitement. The anticipation built as he started to find his rhythm, with each shot he played drawing louder cheers from the crowd.
A particular highlight was when Gill, with a flourish of his bat, dispatched a delivery from English bowler Mark Wood over mid-on for a four, celebrating his milestone in style. The fans, already engaged with the organ donation initiative, erupted in unison, chanting Gill’s name and waving their green armbands in the air.

As the cricketing world takes note of his brilliance, Gill continues to strengthen his credentials as a future leader of Indian batting.
