Indian Test captain ShubmanGill, who was undergoing treatment for a neck injury in the first Test against South Africa, has been discharged from Woodlands Multispecialty Hospital. Gill had picked up the injury on the second day and hence didn't bat in the second innings.

South Africa beat India by 30 runs in the Kolkata Test. Team India was set a target of 124 runs but managed only 93. With this defeat on the difficult Eden Gardens pitch, India fell behind 0-1 in the two-match series. After the match, Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) president Sourav Ganguly visited Gill in the hospital on Sunday, news agency PTI reported.

Gill suffered an injury on the second day of play and was ruled out of the match before the start of the third day. He couldn't bat in the second innings either, and the Indian team collapsed for 93. Gill's participation in the second Test, starting in Guwahati on November 22nd, is still uncertain. The team will leave for Guwahati on Tuesday.
