ICC T20 World Cup 2026 | Abhishek Sharma hospitalised with stomach infection, doubtful for Namibia match

World No.1 ranked T20I batter Abhishek Sharma has been hospitalised for the last two days with a stomach infection in Delhi amid the ongoing T20 World Cup.

With this, Abhishek's participation in the match against Namibia on Thursday at Delhi remains doubtful.

"Abhishek has been admitted to a private hospital in Delhi due to stomach infection. Some tests are being done to ascertain the problem. It is still not clear whether he will be discharged today. But match against Namibia looks doubtful as of now," a BCCI source told PTI.

The team management is hopeful of having the 25-year-old fit for the key match against Pakistan in Colombo on Sunday.

According a PTI report, Abhishek attended a team dinner at head coach Gautam Gambhir's residence on Sunday but left earlier than rest of his teammates.
