Team India has 2 official practice games preceding the T20 WC 2022 against New Zealand and Australia but before that, the Men in Blue will also be playing 2 warm-up T20s vs state club Western Australia.
They’re scheduled to be held on 10 and 13 October at the WACA Stadium situated in Perth.
Though the intensity of these may not be as high as real World Cup fixtures, they’ll help Rohit and co. get used to the Aussie decks ahead of the showpiece event.
Indian Team had their first training session at the WACA yesterday, and BCCI intimated the fans about the same via a Tweet.

Interestingly, Today (October 8) and Tomorrow (October Nine) the Indian players can be seen practicing amongst themselves for a duration of 5 hours.
Timing for Team India Practice sessions– 11:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M.
Following the 2 day practice, Team India is scheduled to play two warm-up games before the T20 WC 2022. The details are as follows:
Time: 4 PM onwards (IST)
Place: WACA (Western Australian Cricket Association), Perth.
Date: October 10 and 13.

Sandwiched between the 2 warm-ups is another Practice session on October 12 that’ll be held from 11 AM to 4 PM Indian Standard Time (IST).
Notably, a special Indian Menu will be available for everyone during the period as mentioned by the official handle of Perth Scorchers.
Kangaroo superstars Josh Phillipe, Matt Kelly, and Cam Bancroft may be seen in action during the warm-up games the Men in Blue are going to play vs WA.
India has areas of concern in the bowling front and thus, the warm-up games ahead of T20 WC 2022 are all the more important for them.

The Indian Team is placed in Group 2 alongside South Africa, arch-rivals Pakistan, Bangladesh, and two more sides that’ll be decided after the qualification phase that starts from October 16.
Rohit Sharma and co. are favorites to top their group while the real challenge for them lay in beating the likes of Australia, NZ, or England in the knockouts.
