Shubhman Gill’s Finger Injury might not be Serious he will be fine Till 22nd November but can miss the First Match due to Precautionary Measure all upto Management and how Fast he recover.
FUTURE PREDICTIONS
Gill Underwent scans post match and went under simulation injury. He is currently Staying with the team and is expected to be fit for 2nd Test. This is not a good open for India, KL and Virat suffered injuries earlier and today Gill had to face the same in this crucial time. Though Rohit has left for Australia but his availability for the 1st Test still doubtful.
There is some good news for the Indian dugout, Virat went under scans and was declared fit for the Perth Test. On a bouncy drop in pitch the onus is now on Kolhi and he needs support from Jaiswal and Pant. The team is relatively a bit inexperienced and this might indicate that India is on the back-foot before a ball is bowled.
