India won the first match against South Africa at the Eden Gardens, after the pitch did not rule in favour of the Indian batters. The Proteas won the match, and India was demoted in the ICC WTC Points table.
Shubman Gill took the field after the Indian no. 3 Washington Sundar's long stay in the first innings for India came to an end with Simon Harmer's first wicket of the match on Day 2. This brought the Indian skipper on, who swept a loose delivery from Harmer off to the boundary on his third ball.
He was hospitalized at the Woodlands Hospital in Kolkata when India played with just 10 batters and was bowled out for 93 runs in the fourth inning of play, thus losing the game by a 30-run margin.
Shubman Gill is likely to be assessed by the BCCI Physios before India reaches any decision
The PTI report further added that the team management is yet to make a final call on Shubman Gill's availability for the second Test at Guwahati. The Guwahati Test will be very crucial from India's point of view, as they intend to regain their top 3 spot in the WTC table and also avoid another clean sweep in a home series.
Not Sai Sudharsan, but Devdutt Padikkal is likely to replace Shubman Gill
Sai Sudharsan was handed many opportunities by the Indian team management at no. 3, yet he could not prove to be fruitful. Recently, during the India A series, Sudharsan failed to score a single half-century or look promising with the bat. Hence, he was dropped from India's playing XI and replaced by Washington Sundar at 3.
