Indian Batsmen Who Score Double Centuries in England: The 5 Test series between India and England is going to start on June 20. Shubman Gill will start his captaincy career from the first match in Leeds. Fans have expectations from this young team after Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma retired. Players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Gill, Karun Nair and Rishabh Pant have the ability to turn the match on their own. Now they will have the responsibility of playing big innings in England.

Many veterans could not score double centuries

In the long and difficult situations of the Test match, scoring a double century is a big achievement for any batsman. Especially on England’s bouncy and swinging pitches, it becomes even more challenging. There have been few batsmen in Indian cricket history who have done this wonderful on the soil of England. You will be surprised to know that great batsmen Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, VVS Laxman, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma could never score a double century in England. This time the young players are expected to end the 23 -year drought.

Double century names of 2 batsmen

So far, only 2 batsmen have been able to score a double century for India in England. Great cricketer Sunil Gavaskar Sunil Gavaskar and former captain Rahul Dravid have achieved this feat. Gavaskar did this feat in 1979 and Dravid in 2002. Incidentally, both the players did this at The Oval Stadium in London.

Gavaskar’s memorable double century

Sunil Gavaskar, popularly known as ‘Little Master’, played a brilliant innings of 221 runs against England in 1979 at The Oval. This was a historic double century in the fourth innings of Test cricket. So far, no Indian batsman has been able to score a double century in the fourth innings of the Test match on the soil of England. That match was drawn between India and England.

Dravid had ended 23 years drought

Known as ‘The Wall’, Rahul Dravid ended the 23 -year drought by scoring 217 runs against England in 2002. After Gavaskar, he became the second cricketer to score a double century on England’s soil. The match between India and England at The Oval also ended on a draw. After Dravid, no Indian batsman has reached the 200 runs figures so far. ‘The Wall’ ended the 23 -year wait in 2002 and now by chance, the players involved in the current team have the challenge to end the same year’s wait.

India vs England 1st Test Pitch Report: The first match of the 5 Test series between India and England will begin on June 20. Both teams will face face to face in the headingley of Leeds. Many types of speculations are being made about the pitch 3 days before the match. Some say that the bowlers will get a lot of help here, while some believe that the batsmen will build a mountain of runs. Meanwhile, a big statement of the pitch curator of the headingley has come out, which went viral immediately.

Will the match not end in three days?

The pitch curator Richard Robinson has said a big thing on the position of the pitch on Monday (June 16). The chief curator said that he wants a good balance between the bat and the ball in the game. In an interview with Revsportz, Robinson said that he wants the match to last 5 days and does not end in three days like matches between India and Australia in the last World Test Championship (WTC) cycle. The chief curator further said that despite the history of the seam and bounce in the headingley pitch, he hopes that whichever team will bat first in the Test match will score a total score of 300 runs.

Grass will be cut: curator

Three days before the first Test, the pitch looks like ‘Green-Top’. To this, Robinson said, “There is a very hot weather forecast, so it is good to leave a little moisture in the beginning and see how it goes.” The grass will be shortened. There has been a lot of dry summer in recent days, so we are pouring a lot of water in the pitch so that it remains last for 5 days. It is expected that this will be a 5 -day Test match and not a 3 -day Test match. ‘

Batsmen will get help

The curator has hoped that the wicket will be flat as the match progresses and the batsmen will enjoy their time on the pitch. He said, “Hope it will be good for both bat and ball. Ideally, the bowlers will be helpful in the beginning and then it will be flat as the game moves forward. If you score 300 runs in the first innings, it will be a good total score. The next two innings may be slightly more. ”

Big responsibility on young players

After the retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, India has reached England with a new team. Despite the availability of Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane, the selectors have shown trust in new players like Sai Sudarshan and Abhimanyu Ishwar. Shubman Gill is leading the team and he will get the support of senior players like KL Rahul, Jaspreet Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja. Rishabh Pant has been made the vice-captain of Shubman for the series.

Vaibhav Sururyavanshi Age Controversy: Bihar cricketer Vaibhav Suryavanshi performed a bang in IPL 2025. He won everyone’s heart with his fearless batting. Vaibhav redeemed the opportunities in Rajasthan Royals under the coaching of Rahul Dravid and captained by Sanju Samson. In the mega auction, the team bought him for Rs 1.1 crore. He then scored 252 runs in 7 matches at an average of 36 and a strike rate of 206.55. He scored a century and a half -century.

There was a ruckus during IPL

During the IPL, Vaibhav was also in the discussion about his batting as well as his age. Some people described him as 13 years and some told him 14 years old. Even some have said 15 years old. It was discussed in the entire IPL. After seeing this dispute, the Board of Control for Cricket in India has taken big action. He has decided to conduct an additional bone test at the junior level as part of a new initiative to catch over-edge players.

We are not afraid of anyone: Vaibhav’s father

Vaibhav’s father Sanjeev Suryavanshi responded to these allegations and told PTI, “When Vaibhav was 8.5 years old, he gave BCCI bone test for the first time. He has already played India Under-19. We are not afraid of anyone. He can conduct age test again. “An old video went viral on social media during the IPL, in which Vaibhav was allegedly heard as a separate date of birth. However, no one knew the truth of this clip.

What is the new BCCI rule?

According to the current method, each player undergoes a bone test for age determination through the Tw3 method and a ‘1 factor’ is added to determine his eligibility in the same age group in the next season. However, according to the new rule, under-16 level players will have to undergo another bone test to decide the eligibility in the next season, if the ‘1 factor’ excludes them last year.

Big information surfaced

A BCCI source told PTI, “This is being done to achieve accurate age and to ensure that no player lost due to arithmetic calculations instead of scientific calculations. This means that a player’s age should be 16.4 or less in male cricketers in the next season and 14.9 or less for participation in women’s case.

Indian Captains Who Won Test Series in England : Winning the Test series in England is one of the most difficult tasks for any visiting team. Only three captains have been able to do this for India so far and no one has done so since 2007. Now Shubman Gill is going to start his Test captaincy with the same challenge. The five -match series on English soil starts from June 20. The first Test match will be played in the headingley of Leeds. Gill has captained Rohit Sharma. Hitman retired from Test cricket before the series. India has not won any Test series in England in 18 years. In such a situation, expectations from Gill are very high.

Start of new era

In the absence of Rohit, Kohli and Ashwin, it will begin a new phase for Indian cricket in Tests. In such a situation, there will be more pressure on Gill than expectations. The team has won only one of its last eight Tests under the new head coach Gautam Gambhir and this tour will be a real test of Gill’s captaincy and India’s change. Before the opening Test match to be held in Leeds, we take a look at the three Indian captains who have achieved success there.

Indian captain who won Test series in England

Ajit Wadekar – 1971

Ajit Wadekar registered his name in Indian cricket history by winning his first Test series in England. India surprised the hosts 1-0 in the three-match series. After the first two Test draws, Team India won at The Oval. For Team India, captain Wadekar scored the highest 204 runs in 6 innings. S Venkataraghavan and Bhagwat Chandrashekhar took 13-13 wickets. Bishan Singh Bedi got 11 wickets.

Kapil Dev – 1986

Three years after lifting the ODI World Cup, Kapil Dev gave India another milestone. This time in the Test, his captaincy was seen in England itself. India won the first two matches in Lord’s and Leeds and won the series 2–0. The third Test was left on a draw in Birmingham. For India, Dilip Vengsarkar scored the highest 360 runs. Chetan Sharma took 16 and Maninder Singh took 12 wickets.

Rahul Dravid – 2007

Rahul Dravid remains the third and previous Indian captain to win the Test series in England. India won the second Test in Nottingham. After this, the first Test match was drawn in Lord’s and third in The Oval. In this way the series was captured 1-0. Dinesh Karthik scored the highest 263 runs for Team India. Zaheer Khan took 18 wickets and Anil Kumble took 14 wickets. Zaheer received the Player of the Series Award.

India vs England Test Series: In the 5 Test series against England, this time everyone’s eye will be on India’s explosive batsman Rishabh Pant. IPL 2025 was also not good for Pant, who failed in Australia series. Except for a century, he could not do anything special. Now everyone’s eyes will be on them in England. He has also been made the new vice -captain of Team India. In such a situation, there will also be additional pressure on Pant. In such a situation, it is to be seen what kind of game he shows under the leadership of head coach Gautam Gambhir and new captain Shubman Gill.

Pant’s amazing record in army countries

Meanwhile, former Indian batsman and coach of Delhi Capitals Hemang Badani has sent a special message to Team India coach Gambhir. He said that Gambhir should give only one advice, “Rishabh, you are your game game, forget that you are the vice -captain of Team India.” Pant has scored 1681 runs at an average of 37.81 in countries (Sena – South Africa, England, New Zealand, Australia) countries. He has not only visited New Zealand. Pant’s ability as a batsman is not hidden from anyone. He overturns the match in a few overs.

A century was held in England

In the previous Test played by India in England, Pant scored 146 runs from 111 balls in the first innings. At that time India had lost 5 wickets for 98 runs. This was his second consecutive Test century in England. I want to get to see the same form of Rishabh Pant next week, not the highly cautious vice-captain of the Indian Test team which is suppressed by responsibility and expectations.

What did Badani say?

Badani said in a conversation with Hindustan Times, “I honestly hope that there will be no change in it. I think he is a person who has found the correct balance of aggressive stroke-play and defensive stroke-play in this cricket. So I do not see any reason why you should try to change it. ”Badani said that serious and Indian team management should talk to them before the Test series and make it clear that they should continue playing their natural game.

Also read: Impossible! The world will be shocked to know the result for the first time in cricket history, the world will be shocked to know the result

Message for Gambhir

The coach of Delhi Capitals further said, “It is important that the head coach like Gautam Gambhir should talk to him and tell him- Rishabh, you play your game.” Do not think too much about the captaincy, vice-captain, you are in the second command, nothing like that. “Badani further said,” There is a definite way that you have been playing for years and he does a good job for you and I think that if he does this again, it will do a good job for us, because he is a batsman who sometimes comes to bat when another new ball is coming. ”

IPL Final 2025: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) finally made their dream of becoming IPL champions for the first time by defeating Punjab Kings in the 2025 season final. Punjab Kings will have to wait longer for the title. After the match, the world saw Virat Kohli getting emotional before RCB’s victory was confirmed. Many people forget how important their 43 -run innings was. Kohli scored the most runs for RCB. Three fours hit 35 balls. Kohli’s innings was probably not sharp according to strike-rate, but it was very important given the pitch.

Virat was dismissed after Karthik’s suggestion

When Kohli was stuck during the batting in the match, he spoke to head coach Andy Flower and batting coach Dinesh Karthik during the time out. Especially the conversation between Kohli and Karthik caught everyone’s attention. However, Kohli did not get help despite the conversation. He was out in the next over. After this, he was very angry in the dugout. Karthik was asked about his conversation with Kohli on Sky Sports Podcast with England veteran Michael Aterton and Nasir Hussain. Arthrton tried to trol them.

Karthik asked sharp question

Athrton asked him, “In that final I saw that during the time-out you spent a lot of time to tell Virat Kohli what to do. He was at the crease and you were there. I saw you pointing to them and I think he was out in the next over after your five -minute ‘lecture’. Tell me what you told them? ”

Also read: Vaibhav Suryavanshi Age: Vaibhav dispute over the age of Suryavanshi … BCCI now regains consciousness, new rule has been announced

Karthik could not answer

On the question of Arthrton, Dinesh Karthik replied, saying, “This is probably the most difficult question that I have been asked at a podcast.” I am trying to think. I have to give the correct answer. What did you think I was telling him, seeing that he was out in the next over? “At this, Arthrton asked,” Well, I don’t know. I just saw what this man is telling one of the greatest batsmen running on earth. What he can tell them and then whatever he told him did not work because he was out. “Nasir Hussain enjoyed this,” I think this is the first time you have no answer. ” You are silent. ”

Kohli has been angry with Karthik before

This was not the first example of involving any unusual activity between Kohli and Karthik. In a match against Rajasthan Royals at the beginning of the season, Kohli rejected Karthik’s request while fielding. In fact, Kohli refused to listen to Karthik with folded hands. Nobody knows what the conversation was about, but if we look at some posts of fans on X (East Twitter), Karthik was probably asking Kohli to try to throw an over.

India vs England: The 5 Test series between India and England will begin on June 20. Before the opening match to be held in Leeds, the new captain of the Indian team Shubman Gill is being discussed all around. He is commanding the team for his retirement of Rohit Sharma. Before the series, former Indian cricketer and commentator Dinesh Karthik has raised questions on him. Karthik believes that Shubman Gill does not yet understand what to be the captain of India.

Gill alerted

The Indian team did not win the Test series in England since 2007. The previous victory was won under the captaincy of Rahul Dravid. After him, giants like Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli have returned empty handed. Karthik was a hero in the victory 18 years ago. He scored the most runs in the three -Test series. Karthik, who works as a mentor of RCB in the IPL, has said that the young player has not realized the vastness of his batting position and is unaware of the challenges faced by him. He told that many strong teams have come to England and they have really faced difficult.

What did Karthik say?

On Sky Sports Cricket Podcast, Karthik said, “I don’t really think he has yet understood the meaning of being a Test captain for India.” He is going into the lion’s den. It is not easy to come to England as a cricketing nation. Teams with many superstars have come and have really faced difficult. ”Karthik also said that England’s weak bowling attack could be a positive sign for Gill and his team.

Also read: Disclosure: Karthik gave Virat ‘lecture’ in IPL Final … again untoward, King Kohli was angry

England bowling weak

Karthik further said, “Fortunately, England’s bowling attack is very weak for Shubman Gill. This is the only positive thing to me. He will be kept under pressure from batting. When I say batting, I mean England’s batting will definitely put pressure on the Indian team, but bowling is an area that is still in progress for England. It can prove to be very good for India.”

Many veteran bowler injured

Many England players were injured before this big series against India. Fast bowler Mark Wood has dropped out of three Tests at least the first three Tests due to injury. Jofra Archer will not be able to play in the initial match and Gus Atkinson is recovering from the Hamstring Strain. It remains to be seen how England’s fast bowling attack performs against the young Indian batting lineup led by captain Shubman Gill.

India vs England Test Series: The 5 -Test series between India and England will begin on June 20 in the headingley of Leeds. This will be the first match of both teams in the World Test Championship 2025-27 cycle. The Indian team in England is on winning the first series after 2007. Last time, the team was successful 18 years ago under the captaincy of Rahul Dravid. After that, even captains like Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli could not achieve success there. However, during this time many innings definitely won the hearts of the people.

We are telling about the top-5 innings played by Indian batsmen in Tests on England after 2010 …

Ajinkya Rahane (103, Lords, 2014)

India’s only win in the 2014 series came to Lord’s and its hero Ajinkya Rahane. On a pitch where the ball was moving too much, Rahane played a smart and brave innings on it. He scored 103 runs in 154 balls. It consisted of 15 fours and a six. He also formed a very important 90 -run partnership with Bhuvneshwar Kumar. India scored 295 runs thanks to Rahane’s century and later won the match by 95 runs. That victory at Lord’s is still one of India’s most famous foreign victories.

Virat Kohli (149, Azbaston, 2018)

Prior to the 2018 series, people used to say that Virat Kohli cannot score runs in England. He responded to everyone by scoring a brilliant 149 runs in the first Test in Edgbaston. When India was struggling at 54/2, Kohli faced Anderson and Broad and batting tremendously. He hit 22 fours and a six and kept India alone alone in the match. India lost that Test by just 31 runs. Team India had to face 4–1 defeat in the series. Despite the defeat in the match, Kohli’s innings is still one of his best foreign centuries.

KL Rahul (129, Lords, 2021)

KL Rahul’s century was worth watching in Lord’s. In the second Test of the 2021 series, he scored 129 runs and gave India a concrete start with Rohit Sharma. He shared a 123 -run partnership. Rahul faced 250 balls, including 12 fours and a six. Thanks to his innings, India scored 364 runs in the first innings and later won the match by 151 runs. It is always special to score a century in Lord’s and Rahul has done so.

Rohit Sharma (127, The Oval, 2021)

Rohit Sharma finally closed all things about his foreign record by scoring a brilliant century in England. In the fourth Test at The Oval in 2021, Rohit scored 127 runs filled with patience and peace. India was behind by 99 runs, but Rohit’s innings turned the match in India’s favor. He batted for 256 balls. Hitman also hit 14 fours and a six. India won the match by 157 runs. That innings is still one of Rohit’s best innings in Tests.

Rahul Dravid (146, The Oval, 2011)

India’s England tour was extremely bad in 2011 and the team lost 4–0. But a person continued to fight and that was Rahul Dravid. He was India’s best batsman in that series and he scored three centuries. His unbeaten 146 runs at The Oval was special. In this match, he started the innings and remained unbeaten till the end. He faced 266 balls and hit 20 fours. Even though India lost the match with an innings and wiped out in the series, this innings of Dravid reminds him of his class and resolution.
