    "editor1": "<p><em>Thiruvananthapuram, Nov.1 -&nbsp;Indian cricketers play 60 <\/em><em>per cent<\/em><em> more cricket than other international teams and hence there is a heavy workload for the bowlers, Indian bowling coach Bharath Arun has opined.<\/em><br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nInteracting with the media here at the Greenfield International Stadium ahead of the final one-day international (ODI) with the West Indies, Arun said: &quot;Since India plays 60 per cent more cricket than other teams, it&#39;s natural that there is a heavy work load on the fast bowlers and hence they will be rotated,&quot; said Arun, a former fast bowler who donned the Indian colours.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nHe said the whole policy of rotation is to manage the work load of each one of them.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nArun praised the swanky Greenfield Stadium, which will be hosting just its second international cricket match on Thursday.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nMeanwhile, Nic Pothas, the fielding coach of the Windies side, went ga-ga over the sprawling 45,000 capacity cricket stadium and heaped praises on the facilities.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nWhile the West Indies skipped a practise session at the stadium, Indian captain Virat Kohli, former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni and a few senior members preferred to rest at the hotel, the rest of the team had a two-hour net session under the watchful eyes of head coach Ravi Sasthri.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe Windies side was seen taking a stroll in the famed Kovalam beach and had a round of beach volleyball.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nSanju Samson, a local lad who has previously donned the Indian colours, lamented he is not playing for his country, which he would have loved to at his home town.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nSamson was busy preparing for the Ranji Trophy match against Hyderabad that also kicks-off on Thursday at a nearby stadium.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe stadium will be opened for spectators at 11 a.m. Ticket sales continue briskly, with over Rs 4 crore already realised and the organisers are confident that it will be a full-house for the series decider.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nAround 1,500 police personnel have been deployed for the match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>IANS<\/p>\r\n",
