Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Team India suffered a shameful defeat against New Zealand. Now the Indian team has to go to Australia to play the next test series where Team India cancelled the practice match itself. Captain Rohit Sharma has given the reason for canceling this match. Rohit Sharma says that instead of a practice match, Team India has planned a special kind of practice in which conditions will be created exactly like a match and all the players will get more opportunities.

How will Team India practice?

Rohit Sharma said on the canceled practice match in Australia, 'Instead of a practice match, we are planning a match-like practice with India A. In this practice, the batsmen will be able to spend more time on the pitch. The bowlers will be able to bowl more. We are more comfortable with this kind of practice than practice.'

Will there be any loss by not playing the practice match?

However, this strategy of Rohit Sharma and company can also harm the team. Because if there was a practice match against India A, the players would have come with the same mindset. The batsmen would have known that if they got out, they would have to go out. But the kind of practice Rohit is talking about will keep the players mentally relaxed. The big players of Team India did not participate in the Duleep Trophy even before the Test series against New Zealand. They only practiced and then its effect was seen in the Test series. Team India lost that series 0-3.

The Test series between India and Australia is to begin from November 22. Team India has to play its first match in Perth. After this, Team India will play a 2-day warm-up match against Prime Minister's XI on November 30. The second Test will be held in Adelaide on December 6. The third Test will be held at Brisbane's Gaba ground from December 14. The fourth Test will start in Melbourne from December 26. The last Test match of the series will be played in Sydney on January 3.
