BGT 2024-25: Call On Gill’s Participation To Be Taken On Morning Of The Match, Says Morkel
Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy: India bowling coach Morne Morkel said the call on injured Shubman Gill’s participation in the first Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test will be taken on morning of the match starting on November 22 at the Perth Stadium.
Gill suffered a fracture to his left thumb while taking a catch in the slip cordon during India's match simulation practice at the WACA in Perth on November 16. India have also got in left-handed top-order batter Devdutt Padikkal as a back-up option.
"Shubman is improving on a day-by-day basis. We will take a call with him right up until the morning of the Test match. He played well in the match simulation during the build-up (before the injury), so fingers crossed," said Morkel in the pre-series press conference.
