Captain Shubman Gill is facing a significant setback as he is likely to miss the upcoming South Africa ODI series due to a serious nerve injury. This unfortunate development could sideline him for the remainder of the year, leaving a leadership vacuum in the team. With Gill out, potential temporary replacements for the captaincy role include the likes of KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant. In addition to leadership concerns, the selectors are exploring alternative playing options such as Abhishek Sharma and considering a pace attack comprising Akash Deep, Prasidh Krishna, Harshit Rana, and Arshdeep Singh. The absence of Gill will undoubtedly pose challenges for Team India as they prepare for crucial series ahead.
