SCHEDULEPOINTS TABLE

According to a Cricbuzz report, Gill and Avesh's trips were limited to the US leg unless the players sustained unforeseen injuries.

After winning three straight games in the group round, the team captained by Rohit Sharma easily advanced to the Super Eight stage of the competition. India will play Canada in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Saturday in the final match of the US leg.

India continue to lead Group A of the tournament after defeating Pakistan, Ireland, and the United States. India's winning momentum could be hampered by the unfavorable weather in Florida as the team prepares for the tournament's Caribbean leg.

Rinku and Khaleel are expected to fly with the team to Bridgetown, Barbados, where India will play their first Super Eight match on June 20. June 22 in Antigua and June 24 in St. Lucia are the locations of the remaining two Super Eight games.
