Both teams were scheduled to practice at the ACA-VDCA stadium in Pothinamallayyapalem here but due to incessant rains the organisers cancelled the net sessions, forcing the players to remain confined to their hotel rooms.
As per the original schedule, the Kiwis were scheduled to practice from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm, while the Indians were to hit the nets at 2:00pm.
The Indian and New Zealand cricket teams had arrived here yesterday.
