AHMEDABAD: With there just being a week-long gap between the IPL final and World Test Championship Final, captain Rohit Sharma said that there will be appropriate measures in place to get the players ready for the red-ball grand finale. The IPL final will be played on May 29 while the WTC summit clash between India and Australia will begin from June 7 at the Oval in London.
“I think it’s quite critical (WTC Final) for us. We’re going to keep in constant touch with all players who are going to play that final and monitor their workload and see what’s happening with them,” said Sharma. The team management, Sharma revealed, will dispatch Duke balls to the bowlers to prepare for the six-day Test when they find time during the IPL.
