Virat Kohli, who retired from Test cricket back in May, heaped praise on Shubman Gill, who became only the third Indian captain to score back-to-back hundreds in the same Test.

Shubman Gill's remarkable performance in the ongoing Test against England has earned him high praise from Virat Kohli. Gill's record-breaking scores, including a stunning 269 and an unbeaten 161, propelled India to a dominant position.

"Well played star boy. Rewriting history. Onwards and upwards from here. You deserve all of this," Kohli wrote.
