Sir Alastair Cook praises India and Shubman Gill

“Credit to India - they withstood the pressure,” Cook tells TNT Sports.

“Shubman Gill has got all the talent in the world but a knock like that in a big moment will do wonders for him going forward. He played the situation perfectly and Dhruv Jurel was very good at taking the pressure off him.

“England will be proud of how they went about it, they didn't miss any opportunities today, it was that second innings yesterday.”
