The lid on all the reports circulating about Rohit Sharma’s pre-season fitness test is about to get shut down. Well, the Indian ODI skipper, who now plays just one format, is set to undergo a mandatory fitness test today (August 30) at the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence (CoE). Alongside him are several other senior team players, including Test captain Shubman Gill and Jasprit Bumrah. However, there’s no update on Virat Kohli, who also played his last match for India alongside Rohit at ICC ODI Champions Trophy final.
Rohit, Bumrah, Gill to give ‘Yo-Yo’ tests
A new fitness test, named the ‘Bronco’ test, has been making rounds across media in the last week or so. Adrian le Roux, the Indian team’s current strength and conditioning coach after Soham Desai, has suggested incorporating the Bronco Test, a fitness drill commonly used in rugby. According to reports, however, the team plans to introduce this test later in the season.
Hence, the players ahead of the new season that starts with the Asia Cup will undergo the famous ‘yo-yo’ test. Apart from this, Dexa Scan (for checking bone density) will also take place for the players.
“All players have to undergo a pre-season fitness Test, it’s mandatory as per the contract. These tests help the COE understand the areas the players have to work on or where they are lacking. As there was a big break (after the England Test series), the players were given sets of exercises to do at home,” a BCCI official said to IndianExpress.
“Look, we take these tests (Yo Yo, sprint, power, Dexa) as part of our assessments. It helps us get an idea about an athlete’s condition. For us as professionals, we are responsible to present benchmarks that are challenging yet achievable after having reviewed the team’s fitness standard.”
