Shubman Gill who is suffering from dengue has low blood platelets due to which he has been admitted to the hospital in Chennai.
It was informed that the blood platelets of Gill had gone down to below 1 lakh (normal range must be between 1.5 lakh to 4.5 lakh). So for a precautionary measure he is taken to the hospital.
It is highly predicted that he might be unavailable in the match against Pakistan on October 14th in Ahmedabad. Also due to his health conditions it was confirmed that he will not be playing against Afghanistan on 11th October in Delhi.
Doctors also suggest that if he will recover the platelets within 2-3 days, he will need 2-3 days minimum to regain his fitness.
BCCI already declared Gill for not traveling with the team to Delhi, “Team India batter Shubman Gill will not be traveling with the team to Delhi on 9th October 2023. The opening batter who missed the team’s first fixture in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 against Australia in Chennai is set to miss the team’s next fixture against Afghanistan in Delhi on the 11th of October. He will stay back in Chennai and will be under the supervision of the medical team.”
