News India Live, Digital Desk: On the second day of the first Test match being played between India and Bangladesh at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, the Indian team has suffered a big blow. Opener Shubman Gill, who was looking in excellent form, got injured immediately after hitting a four and had to retire hurt and return to the pavilion. This incident happened in the 27th over of the Indian innings, when Gill was nearing his half-century. Gill groaned in pain as soon as he hit a four. When the second day’s play started, Shubman Gill and captain Rohit Sharma gave a steady start to India. Gill looked in complete control and was scoring runs easily on the Bangladeshi bowlers. In the 27th over of the innings, Gill played a brilliant flick shot on a ball from Bangladeshi fast bowler Shariful Islam and hit a four on the mid-wicket boundary. But as soon as he played this shot, he was seen groaning in pain. After the completion of the four, Gill did not try to take runs and sat on the pitch holding his thigh. Seeing his problem, Team India’s physio immediately reached the field. After some investigation and discussion, it was decided that Gill would not be able to continue batting. After this he walked out of the field limping with the physio. At that time he was playing after scoring 47 runs and was only three runs away from his half-century. What is the status of the injury? No official statement has been issued by BCCI yet regarding Shubman Gill’s injury. However, at first glance it seems to be a case of strain in the hamstring or thigh muscles. How serious is his injury and whether he will come out to bat again in this innings or not, it will be clear only after the examination by the medical team. Gill’s injury is a matter of concern for Team India, because he was looking in great form and a big innings was expected. After he left the field, Cheteshwar Pujara came to bat. Indian fans are now praying that Gill’s injury is not serious and he returns to the field soon.
