NEW DELHI: Shubman Gill on Wednesday made a mockery of the New Zealand bowling attack and smashed an unbeaten 126 off just 63 balls at the jam-packed Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Tonking the Kiwi bowlers all around the park, Gill, who hit 12 fours and 7 gigantic maximums, also broke Virat Kohli's record in the match.
