With the squad members, including skipper Shubman Gill and head coach Gautam Gambhir, arriving here on the intervening night between Monday and Tuesday, the side trained for nearly three hours here at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

Additionally, with very less turnaround time between the conclusion of the white-ball tournament Asia Cup on Sunday and a series part of the World Test Championship starting Thursday, India will also have to manage the workload of the players.
