5 highest individual scores by Indian batters at Gabba in Tests; Rishabh Pant not on list
Rishabh Pant with the iconic bat roll after taking India to a win at the Gabba got popular scoring an unbeaten 89 in his debut. However, Pant's 89* doesn't feature in the top five for the highest individual score by Indian batters at the venue in Test cricket. Take a look-
1. Shubman Gill, playing just his third-ever Test match - all on Australian soil - probably laid the foundation for India's historic run-chase at the Gabba in 2021. Gill's backfoot punches and short-arm jabs became popular as he missed what would have been a scintillating ton by just nine runs

2. A stylish batter from Hyderabad, former India cricketer, ML Jaisimha was the first from his country to smash a Test century at Gabba in Brisbane. Jaisimha has a 101 to his name during the 1968 tour of Australia

3. Sunil Gavaskar was the next in line to slam a second Test hundred by an Indian batter at the Gabba as he scored a valiant 113 in a thrilling run-chase in the series opener in 199 but the visitors fell short by just 16 runs

4. One of the most underrated and less celebrated Indian batters overseas, Murali Vijay, dazzled at the Gabba in 2014, scoring a masterful 144 in the first innings against Australia. India lost by four wickets but it was Vijay's knock that helped India last that long and far in that Test match

5. Then there was Dada, Sourav Ganguly, who gave it back to Langer's ton in the first innings in the 2003 clash at the Gabba with a superb 144. India were able to draw that Test match
