India captain Shubman Gill hailed his side’s all-round display against Afghanistan as a near-perfect performance, saying the team had “ticked all the boxes” in a dominant victory that showcased both the depth of India’s bowling attack and the direction of a young side in transition.

Leading India in a match that saw his team pile up 564-8 declared before dismissing Afghanistan twice, Gill was particularly pleased with how every department contributed to the result. “I think a complete win from us, ticked all the boxes. So very happy with that,” Gill said.
