India\u2019s Test captain Shubman Gill will not travel to Guwahati with the rest of the team on Wednesday for the second Test and his participation in the game is shrouded in doubt, according to a report in PTI.\u00a0<\/em>Gill suffered a neck injury on Day 2 of the first Test at the Eden Gardens.<\/p>\n

Having played continuously for the last few months, Gill\u2019s workload was always in question and one would assume that it has finally caught up with him.<\/p>\n

The team will have an optional training session on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has acute neck pain and we aren\u2019t allowed to go into details about the injury. He has to keep wearing the neck collar,” a Cricket Association of Bengal source told\u00a0PTI.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cHe has been advised three days\u2019 rest and not to take flight. In this situation, he isn\u2019t advised to travel to Guwahati. But we are monitoring his progress daily and the picture will be clearer by Tuesday,” the source added.<\/p>\n

The Indian team is scheduled to travel to Guwahati on Wednesday for the second and final Test, beginning Saturday, November 22.<\/p>\n

Head coach Gautam Gambhir said in the post-match press conference that Gill is still under assessment, with the physio and medical team all set to hold another round of evaluations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gill\u2019s absence in the fourth innings left India a batter short as they slumped to a 30-run loss to South Africa, chasing a paltry 124.<\/p>\n

Gill was taken to the hospital after the second day of the Kolkata Test, having retired hurt on four after facing only three deliveries in India\u2019s first innings.<\/p>\n

If Gill is ruled out, India could turn to B Sai <\/span>Sudharsan<\/span> or <\/span>Devdutt<\/span> Padikkal<\/span>. <\/span>Sudharsan<\/span>, who struck 87 against the Windies in Delhi, managed a highest score of 32 across four innings for India A against South Africa A.<\/span><\/p>\n
