Team India started its training in New York ahead of their ICC T20 World Cup opening clash against Ireland on June 5.
The ICC T20 World Cup will be played in the West Indies and the USA from June 1 to 29. Men in Blue will also play Bangladesh in their only warm-up game on June 1 at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
Indian pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah took to Instagram to share a picture of some Indian players warming up, including Bumrah himself, pacer Arshdeep Singh, all-rounders Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja, Shivam Dube and number one ranked batter in T20Is, Suryakumar Yadav.
Bumrah’s form, pace, yorkers and fitness will play a crucial role in deciding how far Men in Blue go in their campaign. Having missed the 2022 edition of the tournament in Australia due to injuries, the Indian team felt his absence really hard as they were crushed by England by 10 wickets in the semifinals.
