It can be called a good news for the Indian cricket team that opener Shubman Gill has recovered from dengue fever and he practiced in the nets for an hour on Thursday, which has increased his chances of playing in the World Cup match against Pakistan. .
This 22-year-old player could not play in the first two matches against Australia and Afghanistan due to illness, but he may get a place in the playing eleven in the important match against Pakistan.
In fact, the team management organized a special practice session for Gill before the team reached Ahmedabad. This was the reason why he had asked left-handed throwdown specialist Nuwan Seneviratne to go to Ahmedabad on Wednesday itself.
Gill reached Narendra Modi Stadium at 11 am and after doing some exercises under the supervision of team doctor Rizwan, he practiced at the nets.
Keeping in mind Pakistan’s left-arm fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi’s ‘Indipper’, he practiced on Sri Lankan specialist Seneviratne’s 150 kmph throwdown.
Apart from this, he also faced some net bowlers. During this time he looked comfortable. Before deciding on Gill’s inclusion in the team, head coach Rahul Dravid and the medical team will take note of his progress in the practice session on Friday.
