Shubman Gill’s accessibility for India’s World Cup opener is in uncertainty because of high fever. The 24-year-old opener was the main player who didn’t go to their three-hour practice meeting at Chepauk on Thursday evening.
It is understood that Gill will be tested on Friday for dengue before a call on his participation in the game against Australia is taken.
Ishan Can Take Shubman’s Place
In the event that Gill isn’t accessible for determination, Ishan Kishan – he is at present jarring for a center request spot – is probably going to open the batting close by captain Rohit Sharma. While he has batted in all situations from No. 1 to 5 in ODI cricket, he’s a characteristic fit as a going-after opening hitter. His most elevated score in the configuration – 210 against Bangladesh in December 2022.
Shubman Gill Is Necessary To India’s Mission
Gill’s reasonable nonattendance is a blow for India in any case. He’s the most noteworthy run-getter in ODIs this year with 1230 runs in 20 matches including five centuries, one of which was a twofold ton against New Zealand in January. Playing his most memorable ODI World Cup, Gill is necessary to India’s mission.
‘Shubman Has Great Potential’ – Yuvraj Singh
“He is, at the present time, intrepid. He is in a great structure. He can be a distinct advantage. He can break the shackles. At the point when someone is courageous and in great structure, he is most certainly strategically set up to dominate matches for India. That is the very thing I’m searching for from him,” previous India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh said of Gill in a new meeting.
