"Challenge is everywhere but we need to execute the planning that we make. It's either T20I or Test, you just have to win. In Tests, you have to win every session and in T20Is you have to win each and every ball in the game. It's all about preparation because there are fewer chances to come back after making mistakes in T20Is," Nikhil Chopra said while speaking to ANI.
The second Test, scheduled for December 6 to 10 at Adelaide Oval, will feature the exciting day-night format under the stadium's lights. After that, fans will turn their attention to The Gabba in Brisbane for the third Test, which will be held from December 14 to 18.
