Take a look at reactions on Shubman Gill's maiden Test 100:

Earlier in the day, India had bowled out Bangladesh for just 150 in the first innings. It was all thanks to a superb five-wicket haul for Kuldeep Yadav. He did not let the Bangladeshi batters settle down with his guile and turn. He finished with figures of 5 for 40 from 16 overs. India captain KL Rahul did not ask Bangladesh to follow on. With a lead over 250 runs, Rahul and Shubman came out to bat in the 2nd innings. Rahul scored 23 off 62 balls before he got out in the deep square on the leg side as a pull shot was misfired.

From there, Gill and No 3 Cheteshwar Pujara took the baton on and built a strong partnership for the 2nd wicket. Pujara too reached fifty, at the time of writing of this article. Gill, after scoring the maiden Test ton vs Bangladesh, got out on 110 as he was looking to play the big shots. Gill's 100 in quick time has allowed India to declare the inings late on Day 3. It will be interesting to see when Rahul asks his players to come back as lead had already crossed 470 runs at the time of writing of this piece.
