 "Shubman Gill's Maiden Test Century Puts India in Commanding Position Against Australia"

The third day of the fourth Test between Australia and India saw a magnificent display of batting from the Indian opener, Shubman Gill. Gill, who had already shown glimpses of his potential in the previous matches, finally reached his maiden Test century in style. His century ensured that India reached a comfortable position at tea on Day 3, with a score of 188/2.


The Indian team suffered an early setback as their skipper, Rohit Sharma, lost his wicket after scoring 35 off 58 balls. However, Shubman Gill showed immense composure and patience, as he built crucial partnerships with Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane. The trio helped India recover from the early loss and put up a solid fight against the Australian bowling attack.


Gill's century came off 195 deliveries and included 12 boundaries. His innings was a perfect blend of aggression and resilience, as he countered the pace and bounce of the Australian bowlers with ease. He received ample support from Pujara, who played a steady innings of 50 off 176 balls, and Rahane, who was unbeaten on 4 off 22 balls at tea.


India's strong performance on Day 3 has put them in a commanding position in the match. With a lead of 54 runs and eight wickets in hand, they will be looking to extend their lead and put pressure on the Australian team. However, there is still a lot of cricket to be played, and the Australian bowlers will be looking to bounce back on Day 4.


Overall, it was a thrilling day of Test cricket, with Shubman Gill's century being the highlight of the day. India will be hoping that their young opener can continue his good form and help them secure a victory in the match
