Rohit again started 'preparing for defeat', told the reason for cancelling the match

Rohit Sharma News: After facing a humiliating defeat in the recent Test series against New Zealand, the Indian cricket team is now preparing for the upcoming Test series in Australia. But surprisingly, Team India has decided to cancel an important practice match there. Explaining the reason for this decision, Indian captain Rohit Sharma has said that the team has planned to do "match-like" special practice instead of the traditional practice match, in which real match-like conditions will be created so that the players get more opportunities.

How will Team India's special practice be?

According to Rohit Sharma, Team India's focus is on a practice session in which players can stay on the pitch for a longer time. This special practice will include a match with India A, where batsmen will be able to spend more time on the pitch, and bowlers will be able to bowl more overs. Rohit said, "Instead of practice matches, we will practice like a match, in which batsmen and bowlers will get a full opportunity to improve their abilities."

This kind of practice will give the players an opportunity to focus on the areas they need to improve. Also, batsmen and bowlers will be able to test their mental and physical preparation in a better way.

Can not playing practice matches cause harm?

Some cricket experts believe that this strategy of Team India can be risky. If the players played practice matches, their mindset would have been like a real match, in which they would actually have to go to the pavilion when they got "out". But in this special practice, the players can feel relatively less pressure, which can affect their competitiveness. Even before the Test series against New Zealand, the Indian players did not participate in the domestic Duleep Trophy and only participated in practice sessions, which affected the series 0-3.

India-Australia Test Series Schedule

The much-awaited Test series between India and Australia is starting in Perth from November 22. After this, on November 30, Team India will play a 2-day warm-up match against Australia's Prime Minister XI. The second Test will be played in Adelaide from December 6, the third Test at Brisbane's Gabba from December 14, and the fourth Test in Melbourne from December 26. The fifth and final Test will be held in Sydney on January 3.

This time Team India will have to face many difficult challenges, especially on Australia's fast pitches. It remains to be seen how much this special practice of Rohit Sharma and the team affects their upcoming performance.
