Two days after preventing India from taking a 2-0 lead through a tied result at Visakhapatnam, the Jason Holder-led West Indies side toiled for more than three hours on a humid 33C degree afternoon at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Gahunje here yesterday.
On the other hand, Virat Kohli & Co preferred not to practice on the eve of the third ODI in the five-game series. Though the pitch here is expected to be batting-friendly, it will be interesting to see how in-form batsmen Shimron Hetmyer and Shai Hope tackle India pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Bumrah's yorkers and Bhuvneshwar's accuracy will be a big test for the visitors.
