Shubman Gill’s Comeback: Recovering from Dengue, Flying to Ahmedabad, But Pakistan Match Uncertain
Shubman Gill, who was diagnosed with dengue and missed India’s first two World Cup matches, is making strides toward a comeback. He’s expected to fly from Chennai to Ahmedabad for further recovery and rest under BCCI medical supervision.
Gill’s Health Update:
- He was admitted to a Chennai hospital when his platelet count was low but discharged the same day.
- Indian batting coach Vikram Rathore confirmed Gill’s hospitalization, but it was precautionary.
- Rathore mentioned Gill is recovering and the medical team is monitoring him, expressing hope for his swift return.
Although there are promising signs, Gill’s fitness for the upcoming Pakistan match on October 14 remains uncertain. The BCCI is giving him ample time to recover and regain match fitness, with no immediate consideration of a replacement. The management values him as a crucial team member and anticipates his return soon.

Recovering from dengue, Shubman Gill’s health has shown significant improvement, with vital signs indicating a 70-80% recovery. However, pinning down an exact return date remains challenging at this point.
Team India management is closely monitoring Gill’s progress, but it’s unlikely he will be ready to play against Pakistan in the high-voltage clash on October 14. Given his importance to the team, the management is prioritizing his complete recovery and match fitness before his return.
This means that fans will have to wait a little longer before seeing Shubman Gill back in action, but the signs are encouraging, and he is likely to make a comeback soon, further boosting India’s chances in the World Cup.
