Anderson was brought onto the attack just when Gill started to get going in the Test. Gill was showing good footwork against spinners but fell to Anderson. The England bowler induced a thick edge from Gill, resulting in an excellent low catch by Ben Foakes. Gill scored 34 runs but missed a half-century for the 12th consecutive inning.

James Anderson dismissed Shubman Gill once again in the ongoing Test match between India and England in Vizag. This marks the fifth occasion in seven innings that Anderson has claimed Gill’s wicket. Following this dismissal, Gill’s batting average against Anderson stands at a mere 7.80. The experienced English pacer seems to have a significant edge over the young Indian batsman in recent encounters.

Veteran pacer James Anderson, in his 184th Test match, thwarted Shubman Gill’s aggressive approach with a well-executed delivery that led to an edge caught in the slips. This successful dismissal marked Anderson’s 691st Test wicket, highlighting his effectiveness against the young Indian batsman.
