TOI has learnt that the selected players had been asked to have a great time earlier than they bring together on May 21 in Mumbai earlier than taking the flight to London on May 22. “The players had been informed that they are able to take a smash from coaching after the IPL. They can leisure, have amusing with their close ones and come again in a excellent mind-set,” a supply close to the group management informed TOI.

While Rohit Sharma has made his circle of relatives vacation in Maldives public on social media, it's been learnt that Yuzvendra Chahal is stress-free in Goa. Most players will be again at their properties by May 19.



“The toughen group of workers of the Indian group initiated this move. There have been talks of getting a short camp earlier than the group leaves. But it's going to be very unfair on the players to get into the grind instantly after a gruelling event just like the IPL. So, it used to be made up our minds that the players slightly pass on a smash, ideally a short vacation, so that they feel good about themselves. We can’t chance any burnout,” the supply stated.

TOI understands that there used to be some worry about the preparation for the World Cup with most teams enjoying world fits or conserving camps.

England and Pakistan are lately enjoying a bilateral ODI collection, whilst Bangladesh and West Indies performed an ODI tri-series with Ireland in Ireland to get aware of the conditions in UK. Even Australia and New Zealand performed a couple of pleasant fits earlier this month to get their teams in combination and get used to the 50-over layout. South Africa’s camp at house began in early May whilst Afghanistan are conserving a camp in South Africa.


All of India’s choices turned into tough to put in force with the IPL being held so close to the World Cup. Even the much talked-about fitness check (yo-yo) will not be conducted.




“Holding a fitness check after 10 days of IPL doesn’t make sense. It is mainly an staying power check. You need to be fresh to take the check. That’s why it in most cases happens originally of a season or a long smash. IPL takes a lot out of your body with the frequent travel and video games in such hot conditions,” the supply stated.


The centrally-contracted players had been supplied with GPS-wearable devices. Connected with the Athlete Monitoring System (AMS), every participant will also be monitored.
