Legendary Sunil Gavaskar holds the record for scoring the most runs in a Test series among Asian batters. India\u2019s Shubman Gill has 743 runs to his name as of now, and the 25-year-old right-handed batter from Punjab will have a chance to break the record of scoring the most runs in a Test series by a batter from Asia if he manages to score at least 32 runs in the second inning of the ongoing India-England fifth Test at The Oval. Here\u2019s a look at 10 Asian batters who have scored the most runs in a Test series:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
