India cricket team, led by skipper Rohit Sharma, is all geared up for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. The first batch of players have already arrived in New York ahead of their warm-up game. Instead of a net session, the team has started their preparations with strength and conditioning drills, monitored by coach Soham Desai.
