The team had a two-hour rigorous training session at the Klein Zwitserland Club.
"With just six days left for the World Cup, we started our training sessions yesterday and the focus was to get used to surface, defence in own 25 yards, decision making, goal scoring and attacking during penalty corners," Roelant Oltmans, Director, High Performance, said after the session.
"The atmosphere in the group is good and everyone is fully focused. We all feel the competition is close now but we will stay relaxed and focus on the first match without the pressure getting on to us."
"I think our meeting with Sachin Tendulkar has added the extra excitement in all of us. We all are feeling that change since we met him. I thank him for taking out time for us," he said.
