Coming into his second season with the franchise, Chameera spoke about the continuity within the group and the work put in during the lead-up to the tournament.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe had good preparation for a few days, we had two practice games, and I think the boys are in a good place now. For me, it\u2019s always special because playing in the IPL is a dream. I was with the team last year as well, and if I get the opportunity this season, I just want to contribute to the team\u2019s success,\u201d Chameera said on the eve of their opening match on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Highlighting the demands of bowlers in a high-scoring format like T20, Chameera said, \u201cIt\u2019s always tough for fast bowlers in India. The wickets are good for batting, and the grounds are small, so you have to be mentally very strong. Preparation is not just about skills; it\u2019s also about how you handle pressure in these conditions. If we execute our plans well, we can still do well even in these situations.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Speaking about the fast-moving evolution of T20's and the Tigers' efforts to be up to speed with it, Chameera added, \u201cCompared to a few years ago, now even if you go for 8-9 runs in an over, it can still be okay depending on the situation. We discuss these things as a group, work on our plans, and focus on what is best for the team in that moment.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u201cWe have discussed everything in the bowling group, and we have individual plans for different batters. In these kinds of conditions, execution becomes very important, especially for fast bowlers, so that is something we have focused on in preparation,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
