'Message came from dressing room': Shubman Gill on Rohit, Gambhir's role in 'most satisfying century' in India's win

By our Special Correspondent

India vice-captain Shubman Gill hit a century off 125 balls against Bangladesh in a Champions Trophy Group A match in Dubai. There are more than one reason behind Gill's assertion. Firstly, it was his first century in an ICC event. Secondly, he stayed unbeaten to see India home. Thirdly and perhaps the most important point, it was not an easy chase by any means. The scoreboard may say that India won by six wickets with 21 balls to spare, but things were quite different in the middle, especially when Bangladesh got three wickets to reduce India to 144/4 in their 229-run chase on a pitch that made life difficult for the batters to play shots.
