His absence from the first two matches of the tournament was due to a bout of dengue fever.

Gill, who had been unwell, was replaced by the versatile wicketkeeper-batsman, Ishan Kishan, in the pivotal encounters against Australia and Afghanistan. As per a report from PTI, Gill engaged in strenuous sprints and drills under the watchful supervision of team physician Dr. Rizwan at the match venue in Ahmedabad.
