00:00I think these programs are chalked out or charted out much earlier. It's not just that very moment that they plan.
00:08So, like India will be playing New Zealand in the Wonder Series just after the World Cup.
00:13So, these plans are worked out much in advance.
00:16Again, I say, you know, even like they played Asia Cup competitive.
00:22They played against England. They played against Australia leading up to the World Cup.
00:27So, when you have 8, 9, 10 months of preparation going in, you know which way you're going forward.
00:32South Africa as well, there was a series.
00:35So, you can play as many international series. That's not a problem.
00:39But what is it that you're trying to learn from them?
00:43And what is it individually and collectively the team is trying to gain out of it?
00:48You just don't play a series because you want to play a series because there is an international event happening.
00:52So, I don't think that preparation time was short of it.
00:59Yes, we can always be happy by saying that and we can always feel more content when we say we are playing more international cricket.
01:07That is of course, that great exposure will always help.
01:10But I felt that the mistakes or the, you know, staying behind the game what was there in the earlier T20 events or a World Cup is still happening there.
01:21You can't keep doing the same mistake.
01:23Then that means either your preparation is incomplete or you haven't learned the skill.
01:27The same mistakes cannot happen again and again.
01:30If the same mistake is happening, then definitely there is a miss in either the skill level or the preparation or the adaptation.
01:37So, that needs to be identified and that needs to be clubbed.
01:40Changing people, changing setups is not going to just solve it.
01:44We have everything in our country.
01:46BCCI provides us with everything in our country from preparation to games to whatever a player requires to become a world champion.
01:54So, I think that's taken care of.
01:56It's up to how as players they are able to utilize everything to their advantage.
