Looking to build lead after decimating the Australians at Jaipur, the Indian cricketers sweated it out at the nets during a training session at the PCA stadium here today, ahead of tomorrow's third cricket one-dayer against the tourists.
Led by skipper Mahendraa Singh Dhoni, the Indian players had a good three-hour training session.
They began their session with some drills in the ground and followed it up with a session at the nets under the blazing sun.
The trio of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan, who won the Jaipur game for India had a productive session while the bowlers including pacer Ishant Sharma and Bhuvneshwar Kumar also showed a lot of intensity at the practise.
By virtue of their emphatic win at Jaipur, India have leveled the best-of-seven series 1-1.
Unlike the two previous venues, dew is likely to play a role here tomorrow as heavy dew has been prevailing towards evening time.
