Shubman Gill has dengue fever and is questionable for India's match against Australia.

Shubman Gill's availability for India's ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 opener against Australia has been called into question. 

According to PTI, Gill, who came in Chennai with Team India on Wednesday morning, has been diagnosed with 'Dengue' and is being treated.

The great player skipped India's training session on Thursday and will be tested today by the BCCI medical panel. Gill's availability for the October 8 match at Chepauk will be determined only after testing.

The 24-year-old has been in excellent form for India in One-Day cricket this year, scoring 1,230 runs and seven hundreds. 

After a dry spell following the hugely successful Indian Premier League 2023, Gill rediscovered his form in the Asia Cup 2023 and extended his fantasy run in three ODIs against Australia.

The Gujarat Titans player made 890 runs in the IPL 2023 and finished with 302 runs in India's victory in the Asia Cup. 

If Gill is ruled out, India would bat first with either Ishan Kishan or KL Rahul, with the Mumbai Indians player having the edge over the Lucknow Super Giants skipper.

Rahul's recent record in the middle order has been spectacular, and he has been in fantastic form since returning from injury. 

Both warm-ups against England and the Netherlands were canceled due to rain, thus Rohit Sharma and company will enter the tournament opener against Australia with no game experience.

"Where's the crowd?" chants the audience during the opening match of the Cricket World Cup.

It was advertised as the most anticipated cricket event of the year, to be staged in the sport's largest stadium in the world, in a country famed for its devotion to the game.

However, when the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 finally began on Thursday in India, just a few thousand seats were occupied in a stadium that had been renovated for the event in order to accommodate at least 120,000 fans.

As England and New Zealand faced off at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, which will be renamed after India's prime leader in 2021, cricket fans flocked to social media to voice their outrage at the rows of vacant saffron-colored seats staring back at them.

Danni Wyatt of England women's cricket asked "Where's the crowd?" in a post on X, the social networking site formerly known as Twitter.

Her Indian counterpart, Jemimah Rodrigues, stated that the audience is anticipating India's match against Pakistan on Saturday, October 14.



Delayed ticket release, last-minute changes anger fans

The tournament's scheduling and ticketing procedures have been criticized by fans.

The initial set of tickets went on sale on August 25, fewer than six weeks before the first match, making travel arrangements problematic.

Indian cricket fans who had been waiting for years to see the sport's greatest event in their own country told Al Jazeera that they had given up on their ambition of cheering for their side at home.

Vipul Yadav, a well-traveled sports enthusiast, called the ticketing process's administration "nonsensical."

"Nowhere else in the world do you have to fight so hard for a ticket." "All of this happened because the ticket release was done too late," he explained.


No Indian team, no Indian fans

Several hundred supporters from both competing countries could be visible in the stands during the first few innings of the England vs. New Zealand match.

When the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah was spotted sat in the stands in the middle of England's innings, he took it upon himself to fill at least one more seat.

As the game progressed, local supporters began to fill some seats, although attendance was nowhere near half full.

During the match commentary, former India captain Ravi Shastri stated that India's absence in the first match may be a major reason in the seeming lack of interest from local spectators.

Indeed, this is the first time in 27 years that the tournament's opening match has not featured a host nation.

Ironically, the last time it happened was during an India-hosted World Cup, with the same teams squaring off at the same location, albeit then known as the Motera Stadium.


Before the game, Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar stepped onto the field with the tournament winner's trophy and happily waved to the few fans.

Later, Tendulkar sought to patiently explain the local supporters' devotion to foreign cricketers, promising to "make it a special event for all players."

However, the backlash persisted online.

Manya, an Indian cricket enthusiast and writer, believes that creating the world's largest stadium is not the same as becoming the world's sports administration.
