No Problem with Limited Practice time - VVS Laxman

Indian batsman VVS Laxman is unconcerned about India's limited preparation time in England before the first test match and has backed the team to continue their much-improved overseas performance of the past 10 years. 


Indian team struggled in their only warm-up match against Somerset with the bowling far from impressive and the batsmen struggling, but Laxman insists international players know how to adjust.


Sachin Tendulkar, Gautam Gambhir and Zaheer Khan all certain starters at Lord's are playing their first first-class match in after seven months. 


Indian Strike bowler Zaheer Khan ended wicketless in the first innings and Goutam Gambhir out just on 21runs and Sachin Tendulkar on 26runs. 


VVS Laxman is sitting out the match having played three back to back test matchs versus West Indies but his team-mates were given the runaround with Somerset piling up 425 for 3 on a flat pitch.


Indian team was their previous tour in West Indies, India didn't have a single practice match before the test series. West Indies they won by 63 runs at Sabina Park and that was enough to take the series 1-0.


Because of the hectic nature of international cricket even playing one warm-up is a luxury these days Indian batman VVS Laxman said. When we went to West Indies we didn't have a single match before the tests match. We are quite confident and we'll have good net sessions at Lord's.


The 1-0 series win in the Caribbean continued India's much-improved record away from home. Earlier in the year they came back to draw 1-1 in South Africa and have also held their own in Australia. On the 2007 tour of England they won 1-0 and five years previously shared the series, which VVS Laxman believes played an important part in transforming their fortunes outside of India. There was more than a hint of confidence when he wouldn't single out this tour as harder than others.


VVS Laxman said that, it's a very challenging tour like all overseas tour and we are all very happy for changed our record at abroad. When I started we weren't very good but we've improved a lot. Our mindset has changed.
