No Fans for Shubman Gill's VHT Match: Security, Seating Issues Cited

  • Shubman Gill and Arshdeep Singh's Vijay Hazare Trophy match against Sikkim will be played without an audience.
  • The decision stems from a lack of seating arrangements for spectators and security concerns at the Jaipuria College ground, Jaipur.
  • BCCI mandates international players like Gill and Arshdeep to participate in domestic 50-over competitions.
  • Similar restrictions were previously applied to Virat Kohli's VHT matches; Rohit Sharma's games were held at larger stadiums.
  • Only students and staff will be allowed inside the premises, with private bouncers deployed for security.

Why It Matters: Gill's VHT match against Sikkim is closed to the public due to venue limitations and security concerns.
