Virat Kohli and Co pick Rahul Dravid’s brains during practice; BCCI shares photos

Rahul Dravid

The Indian team is quickly getting into the groove and acclimatising to the Johannesburg climate as it begins its quest to win its maiden Test series in South Africa, commencing here on December 26.

On Tuesday, the BCCI posted pictures of the team's second practice session, where players seen upping their competitive spirit, indulging in a long practice session - their second - and picking chief coach Rahul Dravid's brains.

With Dravid speaking about the virtues of quality practice and good intensity in the first training session, his wards showed true intent with wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant seen taking a giant leap to his left to pouch a difficult catch, while Wriddhiman Saha, too, took his stance behind the stumps.

Virat Kohli, mindful of the changing weather at an altitude of 1,400 metres, turned up wearing a pullover, with pictures showing him receiving batting tips from Dravid.
