Indian captain Virat Kohli has said that the gap found after the T20 series is necessary for the players and the 11 most fit players in the Test series will be fielded. India and Australia have had ODIs and T20s so far and the four-Test series between the two teams will start from December 17 with a pink ball day-night match in Adelaide. India lost the ODI series 1-2 but came back to win the T20 series 2-1. In the press conference held after the third T20 match, Virat said that in the Test series, we have to field our 11 best fit players and in this way, the gap found after the T20 series is necessary for the players.
He said, “There is enough time for only the players who play Test matches and like me the work load management becomes very important for the players playing in all three formats as we have played six matches in a month. It becomes very important for fast bowlers like Jaspreet Bumrah and Mohammed Shami to manage their fitness in these conditions.
The captain said, “All of us should play at a certain level before landing in the first Test match, but it is more important that you are physically fit because in five days of the game we will suffer from any kind of pain. Cannot afford to have a related complaint. ”
