One of the biggest positives for India has been how youngsters have come up through the ranks and performed under pressure taking the team out of danger into a position of advantage multiple times. One of them was Shubman Gill, who scored 452 runs in the five Test matches with an average of 56.50 overall. Despite a poor start to the tour, he hit back at the England attack which included the experienced James Anderson and scored runs including two centuries. 'How Many Have You Scored?'
