Iran, India agree to deepen humanitarian and political ties, President Pezeshkian says
The first batch of Indian players including Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur and Umesh Yadav has landed in England early along with the support staff headed by coach Rahul Dravid. Under the watchful eyes of Dravid, batting coach Vikram Rathour and trainer Soham Desai, the Indian cricketers had their first training session on Thursday.
Recently, Captain Virat Kohli also landed in England and shared a selfie on his official Instagram from London this morning.
Kohli recently stated his determination to win the WTC final for India. "For me, it's not about playing fancy shots and throwing my wicket away. We've got Test cricket (coming up) after the IPL, have to stay true to my technique," Kohli told JioCinema.
Senior player Cheteshwar Pujara is already in England for the last few weeks playing county cricket. This will be India’s second shot at getting their hands on the Test in as many editions. India was beaten by New Zealand in the last edition’s final under Kohli’s captaincy.
While Australia had finished as table-toppers after winning 66.67 per cent of their allotted points, India was second with 58.80 per cent. The two teams had also met in a four-match series in India earlier this year, which India won 2-1.
Earlier this month, India also went past Australia in the ICC Test rankings, taking back the No. 1 slot.
