Star opener is likely to miss Indias T20 World Cup 2026 match against Namibia at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi on Thursday, February 12.
In a huge blow to Team India, star opener and World No 1 T20I batter Abhishek Sharma, is likely to miss India's second Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2026 against Namibia at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi on Thursday, February 12.
Abhishek, who has been a cornerstone of India's aggressive batting approach, is likely to be sidelined due to a stomach upset and viral fever.
Abhishek Sharma is suffering from a combination of a high fever and a stomach bug. He played through illness during the tournament opener against the USA but was visibly struggling, falling for a golden duck and failing to take the field during the second innings. The left-handed batter was substituted, with Sanju Samson handling fielding duties in his place.
According to reports, Abhishek didn't travel to Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. He was the only member missing from Team India's training session in Delhi on Tuesday evening.
