Team India's preparations in New York have gained momentum. Before the start of their campaign in the group stage on June 5, Team India has to play a warm-up match at the Naso County Cricket Stadium and for this, Team India is putting in all its efforts in the practice sessions. After light training on the first day and practice sessions on the second day, on the third day, all the Indian players were seen practicing with their full rhythm and intensity. This time too, some special things came out in the practice session, in which the conversation between captain Rohit Sharma and a player was special.
All the players practiced
Team India and some other teams will also practice in the practice center built about 6-7 kilometers away from the Naso Cricket Stadium. Team India had started its practice a day before. Although on the first day, except for 4-5 players, almost everyone practiced batting or bowling, in the second day's session, except Virat Kohli, all the players entered the nets, which also included reserve players including Rinku Singh, Shubman Gill.
According to reports, in this practice session on Thursday, team captain Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Suryakumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya spent a long time batting. Yashasvi especially batted long in 2 different sessions and worked on his pull shots. Captain Rohit Sharma faced everyone from Arshdeep Singh and Yuzvendra Chahal to Shivam Dubey and this is where a special sight was seen.
Rohit Sharma kept explaining to Shivam Dubey
When Rohit was batting in the nets, he suddenly stopped in the middle and was seen explaining to Shivam Dubey for some time. This was about Shivam's bowling. Rohit was telling him through gestures which line and especially at what length he should bowl on these pitches, which can make an impact. Shivam Dubey bowled in only one match in the IPL and in the World Cup, apart from his explosive batting, he has also been selected for the role of an all-rounder. In such a situation, Team India will see him bowling during the tournament, and hence captain Rohit wants that there should be no shortage of any kind.
Hardik poured all his effort into his batting
At the same time, vice-captain Hardik Pandya, who was going through a bad form during the IPL, also spent a lot of time batting. The star all-rounder hardly scored any runs during the IPL and in such a situation, scoring runs quickly in his role as a finisher will be very important for the team. Therefore, Hardik gave a lot of time to his batting. During this time, he was also seen talking a lot to batting coach Vikram Rathod. Now Team India will have its last nets session on Friday, after which it will take the field for the match on Saturday.
