Indian cricketers tried out a new training technique ahead of the do-or-die clash against New Zealand in Christchurch to save the Test series. The technique is named 'turbo touch' which BCCI shared on their Twitter profile.

India team head strength and conditioning coach tried to throw light on the drill. Nick Webb said it helps the players to get agile on the field and it's good to warm up training.

"A general warm-up to start with, to get the boys moving. We always try to finish up with a game. It’s pretty intensive. It’s called ‘turbo touch’. It’s an evasive guys in which you divide the players into two teams, and they try and score in between the two goals. The idea is that they have only two touches to score and they have to try and evade and try to change up the rules of the way they can catch and the way they play the game as we go,” he said.

“The softball, there is a little bit of swing involved. Have to have softer hands. It just provides a little bit more of a challenge for the guys as they are completing an intensive game.

“I try to make some contentious calls to get the guys to get fired up a little bit. When you fire the guys a little bit, they play a little bit harder, they change the directions a little bit more. There is a little bit more fire into the game which is always good fun,” Webb further said.

Team India's fielding in the limited-overs series was below their standards. It has gradually become a concern as Men in Blue used to be among the top fielding sides in the last few years.

Fitness has been in the primary focus of the team. Skipper Virat Kohli has always emphasized fitness which helps them stay ahead on the field.
