Team India hits the nets in Mirpur

By The Assam Tribune

MIRPUR, June 8 (PTI): The Indian cricket team got down to work soon after landing here today for the short series against Bangladesh, sweating it out in a gruelling two-hour net session at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium.

The side led by Kohli arrived here by a morning flight from Kolkata and they hit the nets at the Stadium in the afternoon. The Indians will take on the hosts in a one off Test starting on Wednesday followed by a three-ODI series.

�Since we arrived today and the boys wanted to practice, it was decided to train at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium as Bangladesh were training at Fatullah. Tomorrow, we will be training at Fatullah,� BCCI�s administrative manager Biswarup Dey told PTI.

Since Fatullah, which is in Narayanganj district takes about an hour and half to reach from Dhaka city, where the team is staying, it was decided to hit the straps rightaway.
