T2O World Cup: Indian Team Opts For Ground Session Ahead Of Practice Match At New York

Nassau County International Cricket Stadium: The Indian men’s cricket team ahead of the T20 World Cup had their first ground session, here on Wednesday.

Soham Desai, strength & conditioning coach led the Indin team’s light running session with some fun activities. However, the team opted out of any cricket practices as they chose to adapt to the timing zone of the USA.

“We didn’t have any practice session today as the motive of the ground session was to make the body adapt to the timing zones. The key thing playing in away condition is to prepare your body and be mentally prepared for the challenges, so that is what we are developing for now,” said Soham Desai to BCCI.
