India women to begin World Cup prep camp in Vizag from August 25

India Women's World Cup Prep Camp

The Indian Women's cricket team is set to begin their World Cup preparation camp in Visakhapatnam from August 25. The week-long camp will include the 15-member squad selected for the World Cup, as well as the six standby players.

Camp Objectives

The camp will focus on skills and is an extension of an earlier camp in August, which focused on fitness, fielding, and match simulations. A couple of intra-squad games under lights are also expected before the team disperses for a short break ahead of the home series against Australia.

Venue Significance

The choice of venue is strategic, given that India will take on South Africa and Australia at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Vizag during the round-robin phase of the home World Cup. The Indian Women's team last played an ODI in Vizag in 2014.
