Gambhir misses milestone in drawn Test

India clinched the two-Test series 1-0 against England on Tuesday after Gautam Gambhir and Yuvraj Singh batted the tourists out of the contest on the last day of the second match.

Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni belatedly declared at 251 for seven when Gambhir was dismissed for 97, leaving England an almost impossible target of 403 in less than two sessions.

Gambhir fell three runs short of becoming only the fourth Indian batsman to score centuries in both innings.
