Calcutta: Bengal’s Ranji Trophy probables got a taste of the international-standard fitness regimen Tuesday, courtesy, Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly.
Andrew Leipus and Adrian Le Roux, physio and physical trainer of the Indian team, respectively, spent nearly an hour with the Bengal players at the Eden in the afternoon.
It was learnt that Sourav had asked the CAB officials whether they were interested in fitness-related inputs from the foreign professionals working with the Indian team. The CAB, in turn, didn’t let this chance go.
Le Roux will hand CAB authorities a written and detailed fitness-diet chart to be followed by the Bengal players. It is expected on Friday.
“It’s great to have them among us. Any youngster aspiring to do well will find their instructions invaluable,” said Deep Dasgupta, the former India wicketkeeper.
