Shubman Gill had a brilliant series in England

278 runs in just four innings at 93 runs per innings and a strike-rate of over 100, scored by batsman Shubman Gill in the five-match ODI series in England earlier this month. His domination is quite evident by the fact that the next best batsman from both the sides has scored just 160 runs in five innings, one innings more than Shubman.

This is not the first time Shubman has scored a lot of runs in an ODI series as he scored 351 runs in just 4 innings at an average of 117 and a strike-rate of 105 when England toured India earlier this year.
