Rohit and Rahul have called the facilities ‘average’ as per a report in News18. The Indian team has raised the concern with the temporary measures taken by the ICC in providing training facilities to Team India. The team was also not happy with the food arranged at the venue.

“Everything is makeshift – from pitches to other facilities. Safe to say everything is very average in nature. The team has raised their concerns,” a source close to developments told the website.

Meanwhile, the International Cricket Council (ICC) was asked regarding the same, they responded saying that “there has been no complaint or concern expressed regarding the practice facilities at Cantiague Park by any team”.
