India have sufficient practice time for Tests in England : Zaheer

TIL Desk Sports/ Former pace spearhead Zaheer Khan feels the month-long preparatory time for India’s players ahead of the tough five-Test series against England this summer will be sufficient to get used to the weather conditions there.

India will visit England, after hopping over from Ireland where they play two T20 Internationals in June, to play three T20Is and as many ODIs between July 3 and 17.

The tourists then have the remainder of July to practice and get acclimatised to the weather and wickets before the start of the opening Test against England at Edgbaston on August 1.

“There will be more than enough time to get used to the conditions. It certainly will give you enough time to get yourself acclimatised. Most players are playing in more than one format and the key players will get used to wickets and conditions,” said the 39-year-old former India pacer.
