On the matchday, at the toss, Sharma confirmed that Ishan Kishan has gone down with illness and will miss the 3rd ODI at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot.

“There’s a bit of viral going around so there’s a bit of uncertainty in the team as well, which we cannot help. Looking at the next few weeks, it’s quite important for us to look after the players and their well being,” Rohit had said on Tuesday.

The BCCI gave an update on Kishan: “UPDATE: Ishan Kishan was unavailable for selection for the 3rd ODI due to an illness.”
