‘It starts now:’ Morne Morkel sets India’s World Cup tone ahead of WI series‎

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: India’s bowling coach Morne Morkel used the pre-series press conference in Thiruvananthapuram on Friday to frame the three-match ODI series against West Indies as the opening move of a much bigger campaign, one that ends with the 2027 World Cup in South Africa. It starts now, with this series against the West Indies. No player drew more questions than allrounder Nitish Kumar Reddy, whose path to a full bowling workload, after a series of recurring injuries, remains one of India’s more delicate management projects.
