Gill suffered a neck spasm in the first Test while playing a sweep shot. After the physio assessed him, he left the field and did not return. He was taken to a hospital later that evening for detailed tests. His injury became a major setback for India, who went on to lose the Eden Gardens Test by 30 runs.
He is unlikely to play the second Test. He needs at least one proper training session before Friday, but the medical team may advise him to rest, given his recent neck trouble. Gill could be replaced by Rishabh Pant as skipper for the must-win game.
