In a pivotal update before India's T20 World Cup encounter against Namibia, cricketer Tilak Varma revealed Abhishek Sharma's hospitalization due to a stomach infection. Concerns are mounting over Sharma's participation, with a final decision about his spot in the playing XI set for match day.

Sharma's ailment became evident during a team dinner at coach Gautam Gambhir's home. Eyeing potential alternatives, sources suggest Sanju Samson could join Ishan Kishan to open the innings if Sharma remains unfit.

Amidst these uncertainties, a beacon of hope shines as pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah declares full fitness. After sitting out the opener against the USA, Bumrah is eyeing a comeback for the Namibia match, pending team management's final call.
