“Obviously, not the most pleasant weather. We’re going to have that challenge at least in one match in the tournament, so might as well get used to it,” Devdutt Padikkal said.

“When we arrive and I got out off the bus, I thought it’s crazy that we’re trying to play a cricket game in the middle of the day. Luckily the breeze came up, I told Azharudeen that it’s much better now and the pitch will get flatter. We had fun out there, I’m please with the runs on the board. It was very stretchy for the first 20 balls out there,” AB de Villiers said.
