Notably, International Cricket Council (ICC) is handling the responsibility for providing food during the T20 World Cup 2022. However, in bilateral series, the host association is in charge of food. The ICC is not providing any hot food after lunch. However, Team India is also not participating in the practice session as they were offered a venue in Blacktown (In the suburbs of Sydney) approximately 45 minutes from Team Hotel where they are staying.

"Team India did not do practice sessions as it was offered a practice venue in Blacktown (In sub-urbs of Sydney) so they refused because that is appropriately 45 minutes away from Team Hotel where they are staying," ANI quoted the BCCI sources as saying.

Virat Kohli's blistering knock of 82 runs guided India to a four-wicket win against the arch-rivals Pakistan in Melbourne on Sunday. India will play the Netherlands next, with the match scheduled for October 27 at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground.
