Rohan is a great player but he needs to have more confidence and that will come as the time passes by but as of now we are just concentrating for the doubles rubber and hope to perform well there.

They are all hardworking and fun to be with. But a captain is only as good as his team and not the other way round.

We have worked very hard over the last 12 days in two sessions. Some players are better prepared to play in the morning but some others prefer the afternoon. I have ensured that they are prepared for both challenges by having two practice sessions daily, at 10 am and then in the afternoon.
