‘Prince is getting ready for grand comeback’ – Fans react as Shubman Gill returns back to the nets ahead of match against Pakistan in ODI World Cup 2023
India’s star batter Shubman Gill is currently embarking on a quick recovery journey from dengue. Notably, the 23-year-old had been down with heavy dengue fever and the team management is trying their level best to make the striking opening batsman recover quickly.
Recently, Shubman Gill was seen travelling to Ahmedabad after the team and was spotted practising in the nets. Notably, Shubman Gill has been one of the key players of the Indian squad and has had a phenomenal record at the Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad. India will next meet archrivals Pakistan on 14 October in Ahmedabad which has been the home ground of Shubman Gill’s IPL team Gujarat Titans.
Checkout Shubman Gill’s recovery from dengue journey
Previously, Gill has missed the team’s match against Australia and Afghanistan and the wicket-keeper batsman Ishan Kishan has replaced him as the opening batsman. Shubman Gill was ruled out of the team’s match against Afghanistan and stayed back in Chennai with the team.
He was also admitted to the hospital as his platelet levels dropped down before one lakh a few days ago, the close sources, while talking about Suman Gill’s health status, said, “Gill’s platelet count dropped below 1,00,000 and he was hospitalised a day before – October 8 – for observation purpose. Nothing alarming there as he is already back in the hotel on October 9 and continues to receive treatment there. Ever since he has landed in Chennai, all his treatment – from regular dose of glucose and other procedures – has been happening in hotel only.”
“Travel to Delhi would have meant consulting a new facility and doctor in Delhi. The management didn’t want that to happen and kept him back in Chennai to avoid any needless travel too. He is expected to join the team only when clearance comes from the doctor. Right now, he is under constant watch of the Indian cricket board medical team and the doctors in Chennai, who have been treating him ever since he came to Chennai,” he added.
“Gill’s vital signs are improving and he is on the right path of recovery – 70-80% recovered. Difficult to say when he will return but things are looking good,” said the source.
