India lost the opening Test against South Africa at the Eden Gardens within the first three days of play. After the loss, a lot of blame was put upon the surface; however, Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir revealed that was what they had asked for.
Indian Test captain, Shubman Gill, has been ruled out of the final Test in Guwahati due to an injury and has been officially released from the squad. He is likely to fly back to Mumbai after he didn't turn up for the training session on November 20th.
It has been learned that Shubman Gill will be flying back to Mumbai and resting for a few days before meeting Dr. Dinshaw Pardiwala for an expert opinion. As of now, no reports have cleared whether he would be part of the South Africa white-ball tour or move to the BCCI Centre of Excellence for further evaluation and rehab.
