The Indian cricket team is on a tour of Sri Lanka where the T20 series between the two teams is going to start from July 27. The Sri Lankan team is fully prepared to defeat the Indian team in their home and they took along a member of the supporting staff of an Indian Premier League team for this T20 series against India. This was revealed by the interim coach of the Sri Lankan team, Sanath Jayasuriya himself.
Rajasthan Royals' Zubin Bharucha helped the Sri Lankan team
The Sri Lankan cricket team was prepared for the series against India by none other than Rajasthan Royals' High Performance Director Zubin Bharucha. Zubin Bharucha, who joined Rajasthan Royals, helped the batsmen of the Sri Lankan cricket team, who will now look to take advantage of the skills learnt from Zubin Bharucha against Team India.
Sanath Jayasuriya made a revelation, said Zubin organized a 6-day camp
Sri Lanka's interim coach Sanath Jayasuriya said, “We started the camp immediately after the LPL. Most of the players were playing in the LPL. Many of our players were busy. Despite this, we brought Zubin Bharucha from Rajasthan Royals. We worked with him for about six days. Other cricketers also joined him after playing in the LPL. The players have benefited from this.”
Our players got a lot to learn from Bharucha- Jayasuriya
Jayasuriya further said, “The sessions with Bharucha were very intense and the players learned a lot from him. The preparation is good. We have two more days in Kandy before the T20 series starts. It is important for international cricketers to learn new techniques, new approaches and new shots so that they can become effective.” It will be interesting to see how much the Sri Lankan team can benefit from these tips received from Rajasthan Royals' high performance coach Zubin Bharucha.
