Shubman Gill scored 21 runs in the first innings at the Oval before getting run out, unfortunately. Owing to Karun Nair's half-century after nine years in Tests, India ended the day on a high, but they need to bat for as long as possible on Day 2.

Shubman Gill came under fire from fans for a careless run-out on Day 1 of the final Test, with India's assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate also highlighting the recklessness of the dismissal during the post-match media interaction.
