Gill provides update on his thumb injury
Indian opener Shubman Gill seems to have recovered from a thumb injury that put him out of the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. Gill returned to the nets to practice and he was seen facing Yash Dayal and Akash Deep. The young opener looks set to feature in the second pink-ball Test in Adelaide, beginning December 6. Ahead of the pink-ball warm-up game, Gill provided an update on his thumb injury.
"Any ball when it hits the middle of the bat, the feeling that you get, that is the feeling I play for. When I got to know about my injury, for first couple of days I was quite low and disappointed," Gill said in a video posted by BCCI on X.
“It was my first day, and I was just trying to get a feel to be honest, see how the injury is reacting, if any kind of soreness is there but it went much better than what I and Kamlesh bhai expected. Very happy with that," Gill said.
Gill expressed his unhappiness over missing the Perth Test, but he was incredibly ecstatic with the way India dominated Australia.
“Perth was the only venue where I didn’t play when we came the last time, and I was looking forward to playing there at such an iconic venue. The way we played that game, at the end of the day, I was very happy,”
