Before the ODI series against New Zealand, the Indian team seems to have suffered a major setback. According to reports, opener Rohit Sharma has been ruled out of the series due to injury. Shubman Gill and Prithvi Shaw are seen as strong openers after Rohit's exit from the series. Indian cricket team opener Rohit Sharma was injured during the last T20 match against New Zealand. Now, there are chances that Rohit won't play the ODI series. Shubman Gill, who scored a double century against New 'Zealand A' last week, may replace him in the ODI Series.
Playing for 'India A' against 'New Zealand A', Shubman Gill has scored a double century while playing a brilliant inning. Gill seems to be in very good form right now, after which he can get a chance in Test in place of Rohit. In the first innings of the unofficial Test match, Shubman scored 83 runs against New 'Zealand A' while in the second innings, he played a brilliant inning of 204 runs. During this unbeaten innings, he hit 22 fours and 2 sixes.
After Shikhar Dhawan was injured, Prithvi Shaw was included in the ODI squad. Prithvi played a brilliant inning of 150 runs while playing for 'India A' against New Zealand. In such a situation, Prithvi can be given an opportunity to open with KL Rahul in ODIs.
