As India and South Africa clashed for the first Test at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, Captain Shubman Gill faced a major setback in the form of an injury. The injury came after he faced just three balls in the innings.
Shubman Gill did not look comfortable while taking the field with the willow and retired hurt on four after having faced just three balls in the innings. He walked off clutching his neck with his hand after the physios came to check on him.
The concerns have been raised since it was confirmed that he had been taken to a hospital in Kolkata, despite the BCCI claiming that the cricketer has only been ruled out due to neck spasms.
Morne Morkel did not consider Gill's fitness as a workload issue
“Yeah, I think we first need to determine how he got the neck stiffness, maybe just a bad night’s sleep," Morkel said, when asked if Gill’s packed multi-format calendar was a factor, as quoted by PTI. “I don’t think it’s, or we can put it down to the load," he added.
