I thought he got (dismissed by) a good ball today, which can happen when you are short on form, assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate said after Gill, who has an impressive record in the Indian Premier League (IPL), fell for a first-ball duck against South Africa on Thursday. But we also know the class. If you look at his IPL record, where he stacks up 700 runs, 600 runs, 800 runs, 600 runs. We believe in his class and we believe he will come good.

England appeared to be in control of the match, chasing a target of 374 runs, propelled by stellar centuries from Harry Brook and Joe Root, but suddenly found themselves in a precarious position with six wickets down and 35 runs still required as the day ended prematurely due to bad light and rain.

Rishabh Pant tested his injured left index finger before batting, walking on the boundary during an impromptu net session, showing determination despite pain.

India is weighing the decision to include Jasprit Bumrah in the second Test, considering pitch conditions and energy reserves ahead of the next match.

India makes one change to their lineup, bringing back captain Harmanpreet Kaur into the squad in place of Harleen Deol, enhancing their strategy after a previous victory.
