Kraigg Brathwaite, the West Indies Test captain, emphasized the significance of mental preparation and skill execution on the field for the upcoming home series against India. The first Test match of the series will take place at Windsor Park in Dominica from July 12-16, followed by the second Test at Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad from July 20-24.

“It’s important to start well. We are playing against India, so you know the guys are really looking forward to it. I think as a team, and as batsmen and bowlers, we already have those thoughts in mind about what to expect, and this is why preparation is very important,” Brathwaite was quoted as saying by Cricket West Indies (CWI).

“It’s all about how you prepare, knowing what we’re going to get in terms of conditions, we generally know how the surfaces will play, and we already know India’s team, so it’s important from now to mentally prepare, and understand the plans we want both as a bowling unit and as batters, so you know it will all come down to execution,” he added.
