IND vs ENG: The tension of Team India, which is chasing the target of 259 runs in the first ODI against England, has increased. Indian captain Shubman Gill has retired hurt. Gill came to open in this match and was batting brilliantly. He batted for 25 overs and scored 80 runs, but then he was facing a lot of problem in the back part of his right leg, due to which he had to retire hurt. This means that if needed, Indian captain Shubman Gill can come to the field to bat again.

Shubman Gill had to retire hurt

In this ODI match against England, Shubman Gill looked in great form and was hitting excellent shots all around the field, but then suddenly he got a cramp in the muscles of his legs. Many times the physio came to the field and examined Gill’s legs, but due to severe pain, Gill was not able to run, due to which he finally had to leave the field. Hopefully it’s just cramps and nothing serious.

Century partnership between Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer

The first ODI match between India and England is being played at Edgbaston Cricket Ground in Birmingham. England won the toss and batted first and set a target of 259 runs for Team India to win. In response to this, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill started the innings of Team India. However, Rohit could not do anything special and was out after scoring 11 runs. Then Virat Kohli also left after scoring 5 runs.

After the early wickets of these two great batsmen, Indian captain Shubman Gill and vice-captain Shreyas Iyer took charge and made a century partnership for the third wicket, but they started having problems with their legs, after which Gill had to be retired hurt on 80 runs. He had a chance to score a century. However, the team and fans would like Gill to get fit soon and return to the field again.
