"We have analysed the Indian team. As players, you always look to plan ahead of the game.

They will punish you and that's guaranteed," said Bruyn while replying to ANI query in a virtual press conference.
"We want to finish this campaign on a high. It's been 45 days in the bubble, there are no excuses. Tomorrow's platform for any player to face the best in the world is a platform where you should treasure the moment, you should be upfront," he added.
