Team India batter Suryakumar Yadav also highlighted the positives of having a big dressing room during a chat with teammate Jaydev Unadkat.

In the aforementioned video, the star batter said:

"These are comfortable seats. Most importantly when I come inside the dressing room, I like to see a lot of space, and use a lot of space. So there's a lot of space to keep my kit bag, there is a nice locker here where I can keep all my clothes and everything."

India will play an ODI at this venue for the first time since 2019. The last time they played at the ground, they suffered an eight-wicket defeat against the West Indies.
