The Indian cricket team landed in Delhi on Monday ahead of its second ICC World Cup-fixture against Afghanistan on October 11. India overcame a horror start to complete a six-wicket win against Australia in their campaign opener in Chennai on Sunday.

“The team is in Delhi,” said a BCCI source.

The team travelled without its star opener Shubman Gill, who continues to recover from an illness under BCCI’s medical supervision in Chennai. Gill had missed the game against Australia and was replaced by Ishan Kishan in the playing XI.

Since Monday was a travel day for the team, no training session was scheduled. Rohit Sharma and Co. will hit the nets at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday evening.

Afghanistan, who lost their tournament opener to Bangladesh in Dharamsala, are scheduled to train on Monday evening.
