Indian national cricket team being monitored
During the pandemic, to ensure the continuous training sessions and keep track of everyone’s daily regime in the Indian national cricket team, BCCI is keeping a close eye through an exclusive app. Team India’s cricketers, coaches and support staff have access to the app that carries videos of individual and team performances, skill-specific duels and a database on the frequent causes of injuries among other things. A source revealed to the leading daily that the batting and bowling coaches are having their own sessions while the board is trying to develop a sense of uniformity in coaching at all levels even in this phase.
“There’s a daily interaction; in fact in some cases on an hourly basis to keep track of their daily regimen and the training sessions they’re undergoing at their homes. The batting and bowling coaches are having their own sessions with the team members. The head coach is overseeing this. That aside, the Team India coaches are holding sessions with the National Cricket Academy’s (NCA) coaching staff and there’s an effort being made to bring around a sense of uniformity (in coaching) at all levels,” a source told TOI.
Exclusive app to maintain uniformity
The app has a four-stage plan which is aimed at keeping the men in blue physically and mentally fit. It has training sessions, chat rooms, and questionnaires as well to keep everything on track. The BCCI treasurer explained the same to TOI and said, “What we’ve tried to do is divide this process into different phases. Aspects pertaining to the physical and mental health of our cricketers, professional assistance online, monitoring of diets, fitness sessions etc are being conducted on a daily basis.”
On the other hand, the batting coach of Indian national cricket team, Vikram Rathour is busy making individual plans for every player. The fielding coach R Sridhar is ready to take feedback of everyone through a specially designed questionnaire made for the team.
Rathour said, “It is the players who are doing the talking. I’m trying to listen and work around the topics that are being brought up. We have an app. We’ve started to put videos in that app.”
