Who Can Replace Shubman Gill In India XI For ODI World Cup Match Between India And Australia?

A final decision on Shubman Gill's availability for Sunday's India vs Australia ODI World Cup game is yet to be made as the young opener will be tested for dengue on Friday.

Ishan Kishan to replace Shubman Gill in India XI for IND vs AUS match: Shubman Gill, team India's brightest emerging talent and top-former in ODIs in 2023, is reportedly down with dengue fever and is likely to miss Sunday's India vs Australia ODI World Cup 2023 match, set to be played at Ahmedabad's iconic Narendra Modi Stadium. Gill's latest health troubles are a huge jolt to India's ODI World Cup 2023 plans. As per several media reports, Shubman Gill is doubtful for Sunday's India vs Australia match and if he gets ruled out of the encounter, wicket-keeper batter Ishan Kishan seems to be the number one contender to come in as his replacement.

A PTI report suggests that a final decision on Shubman Gill's availability for Sunday's India-Australia ODI World Cup game is yet to be made as the young opener will be tested for dengue on Friday.

In most of the cases, recovery from dengue can indeed take around 7 to 10 days, depending on individual factors and severity of the infection. It is possible that the Indian team management may rest Shubman Gill for not just the Ind-Aus match but also next few games to ensure a safe and complete recovery.

Ishan Kishan or KL Rahul in place of Shubman Gill in IND vs AUS ODI World Cup match?

Just like Ishan Kishan, KL Rahul, who is also a wicket-keeper batsman, is a strong candidate for the opening role. KL Rahul has plenty of experience as an opener and has performed well in that position in the past. However, India, at present, wants a solid player like him in the middle-order, as previously mentioned by captain Rohit and head coach Dravid.

Given Ishan Kishan's current form and aggressive batting style, he is a potential candidate for the opening position alongside Rohit. Ultimately, the final decision will depend on pitch conditions, and the form and fitness of the available players.
