“We don’t have much idea about the wicket, but we’ve had practice sessions to try and understand how it behaves. It’s important for us to adjust quickly, as international teams must do. It’s an important series for us. T20 cricket is all about what happens on the day, and we’re confident we can play well,” Shanto concluded.
