India Prepares for Strong Winds Ahead of Wellington Test Match

Analysed 26 Oct 2026·2 sources analysed·Wellington, New Zealand·Sports
India Prepares for Strong Winds Ahead of Wellington Test MatchPreviousNext

Ahead of India's Test match at Wellington's Basin Reserve, bowling coach Morne Morkel advises players to prepare for strong, unpredictable winds that can affect bowling and batting. Drawing from his experience, Morkel suggests practicing in front of a powerful fan to simulate conditions. The winds, reaching speeds up to 120 kmph, pose challenges such as disrupting bowlers' balance and batters' stance. India plans to use limited practice time to adapt before the Test begins on November 19.
