India captain Shubman Gill scores 161 as India set England 608 to win the second Test, with the home side closing day four on 72-3, still 536 runs short of their target.

India will be favoured to make it 1-1 in the series, and Shubman Gill is leading the charge, even if his declaration might be regarded as conservative. England fans were certainly displeased with the India skipper making his team bat on until the drinks break in the last session,
