5 legendary Indian batters who had fewer Test hundreds than Shubman Gill’s 10 ft. Gautam Gambhir

#3 Kapil Dev

Former skipper Kapil Dev is one of the most successful all-rounders for India in Tests. The right-handed batter represented the team from 1979 to 1993, amassing 5,248 runs in 131 matches with the help of eight centuries. The legendary player announced his arrival with his first century against the prime West Indies in 1979 away from home. It’s worth mentioning that he also scored away centuries in England and South Africa. Like Dhoni, the middle-order batter didn’t get enough opportunities with the bat as he mostly played at the 7th and 8th spots, scoring 2,861 and 1,777 runs, including five and two tons, respectively.
