Save Ravindra Jadeja, one of the younger Indian players within the present squad, in spite of their very best fitness and agility, aren't able to get their direct throws heading in the right direction, a an important facet throughout shut games.
Trying to beat the monotony, fielding coach Sridhar presented a brand new fielding drill 'Round The Clock', during which fielders at six different positions will take a shy at the non-striker's finish.
While the drill looked to be like 'old wine in a brand new bottle', the players looked to be taking part in the consultation, which is the key throughout a big event.
"We had an interesting fielding session today. The theme of the session was direct hit. The focus was on boys getting it right from different angles at the non-striker's end. Initially, we started with a drill called 'Round the Clock', where there were six different fielding positions from where they had to hit the stumps 20 times," Sridhar instructed bcci.television after the consultation.
After a brief consultation where the fielding coach spoke concerning the significance of having a "correct arm-path" as a way to get the execution right, he arranged for a competition where the 'final man standing' was not at all the 'very best man standing'.
"Then we introduced a game where those who get a successful direct hit is out of the session and those who fail have to come back again and finally there was only one guy who was left in the end. The boys were rolling on the floor laughing," Sridhar mentioned.
The different notable facet was skipper Virat Kohli trying a bit of off-spin at the nets however the batsmen facing him had no issues dispatching the friendly tweaks.
With no off-spinner within the squad and Kedar Jadhav hardly bowling with his dodgy hamstrings, it appeared adore it was more about Indian captain providing a bit of knocking for the other batsmen.
