India win by 336 runs at Edgbaston as Shubman Gill anchors historic total
India beat England by 336 runs at Edgbaston, Birmingham on 2 July 2025, with Shubman Gill's 430 runs off 549 balls across the match earning him the Player of the Match award. England won the toss and chose to field, but India batted through with a first-innings total of 587 that rendered the decision academic almost immediately. England replied with 407, a solid effort in normal circumstances, but it left them 180 behind. India then posted 427 for 6 declared in their third innings, setting a target of 608. England's fourth innings ended at 271 all out.
At a venue where the average first-innings score across 198 matches is 195, India's 587 was in a different category entirely. Gill's contributions with the bat, combined with Akash Deep's 10 wickets for 187 across 41.2 overs, gave India the kind of platform that makes results look inevitable in hindsight. England's JL Smith hit 272 off 306 balls to keep his side fighting, but the deficit was too large.
The result extends India's lead in the all-time head-to-head to 78 wins against England's 52, across 143 Tests. England had won the immediately preceding completed match between the sides at Lord's, so this was a sharp response.

Betting & analytical angles
Angles the data surfaced
- Top batter markets may be worth closer attention in this series given the volume of runs scored at Edgbaston; first-innings totals well above the venue's historical average suggest batting conditions were unusually favourable.
- Innings runs markets could reflect the gap between this ground's historical average of 195 in the first innings and the 587 India actually posted; outlier scores at this venue are not uncommon in Test cricket.
- Match result lines in Test cricket at Edgbaston are historically tighter than this outcome suggests; the toss has influenced results here 58 per cent of the time when teams elect to field, which may be a factor worth tracking in the next encounter.
- Player of the Match markets in Test cricket tend to favour batters when first-innings totals are large; Gill's dominance across all four innings suggests those individual performance lines warranted attention coming into this match.
