The Indian team landed here early Tuesday morning and captain Harmanpreet Singh, suffering from mild fever for the past few days, was visibly exhausted as he, accompanied by coach Craig Fulton, had a first look at the newly laid turf and revamped Mayor Radhakrishnan Stadium in the evening.
The rest of the team will only get its first feel of the ground on Wednesday. While other teams, including Malaysia and Korea, made it clear that a tournament on a new turf so close to the Asian Games was less than ideal, Fulton and Harmanpreet preferred to look at the positives.
