After three consecutive wins in the ongoing 2024 T20 World Cup, which guaranteed India’s berth in the Super Eight stage, the Rohit Sharma-led side is all set to take on Canada in their final group-stage match in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on June 15. According to a report, that will also mark the end of Shubman Gill and Avesh Khan’s stay with the Indian Team in the World Cup as they will be released by the management after the match against Canada.
According to Cricbuzz, Gill and Avesh, who are in the T20 World Cup squad as travelling reserves, flew to Florida with the team on Wednesday on a chartered flight. The flight was organised for both India and the USA sides after their group game at Nassau County International Stadium in New York.
The website learned that Gill and Avesh’s stay with the Indian team was only up till the US leg of the competition. They were only part of the squad because it wasn’t feasible for the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to fly in an immediate replacement player to the US or the Caribbean in case of an emergency.
