India batter Shubman Gill has continued his impressive run in the ongoing County Championship as he smashed maiden century while representing Glamorgan.
Gill had begun well in his first county stint scoring 92 against Worcestershire and then scoring 22 and 11 against Middlesex. In what will be his final appearance for Glamorgan this year, Gill brought up his first century in the English first-class competition against Sussex at County Ground, Hove, on Tuesday (September 27).
The right-handed batter was eventually dismissed for 119 off 139 – sixteen fours and two sixes. So far, Gill has scored 244 runs in three games at an average of 61.
