Estimated read time 2 min read

Roadside open park. There are rows of nets. Among them, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are practicing. India have yet to play their first match in the T20 World Cup. Before that, Rahul Dravid was surprised to see the Indian team’s practice place. India will play their first three matches at the Nassau County Stadium in New York. The team is staying in a hotel near the stadium. But Rohit has to go to Kantiaz Park, which is about 5 miles away, to practice. America has fewer fields.

As there are games every day, practice is not possible there. So practice arrangements are made in different parks. So is this park. In this context, Dravid told reporters, “I am really surprised to have to practice in the park. Of course, it’s fun. This does not happen in the country anymore. The World Cup also has big stadiums. That’s where practice takes place. But here, the situation is different. We are practicing in the park.”

Will Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli open for India in the T20 World Cup? Or will Jasswi Jaiswal bat first with Rohit? This is the question on the minds of Indian fans. Rahul Dravid, the team’s coach, kept the fog on the matter even the day before he came down to play the first match of the World Cup.

“We have options,” Dravid told reporters after the Indian team’s practice in New York. I’m not playing cards right now. We definitely have some plans in mind. We are preparing all kinds of options. According to the situation and the opponent, I will decide which two of the three people will come down to open.”
