Abhishek, who currently holds the No. 1 spot in the ICC T20I batting rankings with 909 rating points, has been struggling with illness since the tournament began.
India's premier opening batter, Abhishek Sharma, has been discharged from a New Delhi hospital following treatment for a stomach infection. The update was confirmed by his teammate Tilak Varma during a pre-match press conference ahead of India’s second T20 World Cup group stage match against Namibia, scheduled for February 12 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Medical Update and Participation Doubts
Abhishek, who currently holds the No. 1 spot in the ICC T20I batting rankings with 909 rating points, has been struggling with illness since the tournament began. He reportedly played through discomfort during India's opening match against the USA in Mumbai on February 7, where he was dismissed for a golden duck and was unable to take the field during the second innings.
Upon the team's arrival in the capital from Mumbai, Abhishek was taken to a medical facility for scans and a thorough examination. "Abhishek went to the hospital after we landed. He went for an examination. He has been discharged," Tilak Varma informed the media. "When we reached Delhi, he went to the hospital for scans. He was discharged today. He is doing well."
Despite being out of the hospital, his participation remains uncertain. He missed the team’s training session on February 10 and was absent from the practice session on the eve of the match. Furthermore, he reportedly left a team dinner hosted by head coach Gautam Gambhir early on Monday due to his physical condition.
