World Sports · 22:03:21 - Thursday, 5 November 2026

Indian opening batter Shubman Gill was spotted wearing a device branded as 'Temple' during the first One Day International against New Zealand in Auckland. The appearance of the device has prompted discussion regarding International Cricket Council regulations on advertising and branded equipment during matches.

The ICC's rules prohibit players from displaying commercial logos or branding on their clothing or equipment beyond approved sponsor areas. Officials are expected to review whether the device complies with existing guidelines.

The match took place on November 4, 2026, as part of India's tour of New Zealand. Further clarification from the ICC is awaited.
