The Indian cricket team arrived in Delhi on Monday in preparation for their second match of the ICC World Cup against Afghanistan. The team had a triumphant start to their campaign when they overcame a slow start to win their opener against Australia in Chennai on Sunday.
A BCCI source confirmed the team's arrival in Delhi, but noted that star opener Shubman Gill did not accompany the team. He is still in Chennai, recovering from an illness under the supervision of the BCCI medical staff. He had been absent from the team's match against Australia, replaced by Ishan Kishan in the playing XI.
Monday was a travel day for the team, so no training session was scheduled. However, the team will be hitting the nets at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday evening. Meanwhile, Afghanistan, who lost their tournament opener to Bangladesh in Dharamsala, are set to train on Monday evening.
It has been reported that Shubman Gill has been ruled out of the India vs Afghanistan match due to dengue fever. However, he is on the mend and is expected to recover quickly.
