Generally, on the day before the match, we stick to the batting order,&quot; Kohli told reporters at a media meet here.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Sometimes it does happen that a player wants a throw-in and doesn&#39;t prefer batting at that point. That doesn&#39;t mean he is not going to play,&quot; he added.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>India had a two-hour practice session at the Eden Gardens on the eve of their second Test against New Zealand starting here on Friday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Gambhir was seen first given catching practice far from the nets where Ajinkya Rahane and Ravindra Jadeja were playing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/lukewarm-response-to-second-india-nz-test-at-eden--19760\"><span style=\"color:#FF0000;\">Lukewarm response to second India-NZ Test at Eden Gardens.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Delhi opener, who last played for India in 2014 against England at the Oval, grassed a few catches before coming to the centre of the field to have a chat with Kohli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He batted at the death of the team&#39;s practice but under the watchful eyes of coach Anil Kumble.<\/p>\r\n",
