The ongoing India vs England Test series has entered cricket’s history books after nine batters scored over 400 runs—a feat never seen before in Test cricket. This landmark unfolded during the five-match series currently being played across England, as Indian and English top-order batters delivered with remarkable consistency. India’s Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ravindra Jadeja, and Rishabh Pant, alongside England’s Ben Duckett, Joe Root, Jamie Smith, and Harry Brook, all crossed the 400-run threshold. The previous record was eight such batters, achieved in the 1975–76 West Indies tour of Australia and the 1993 Ashes. Gill leads the tally with a phenomenal 754 runs in ten innings, including four centuries. He broke Graham Gooch’s 1990 record of 752 runs, making him the highest run-scorer in any India-England Test series.
