Shubman Gill Injured in Nets but Cleared to Play First ODI vs West Indies
India captain Shubman Gill suffered a right elbow injury during nets ahead of the first ODI against West Indies on September 27 in Thiruvananthapuram. He left the session early after being struck by Mohammed Siraj and did not resume batting, though he appeared more comfortable later. With limited recovery time, his availability was initially uncertain. However, India's batting coach confirmed Gill is fit to play in the opener. The series includes three ODIs followed by five T20Is, with injury management a key focus for India.
