Keeping in India isn't easy, but Australian gloveman Alex Carey has a plan that he believes will help him handle life on the subcontinent.
Help keep family & friends informed by sharing this articleAlex Carey has locked down his place in the Test side after two strong home summers and solid showings in Pakistan and Sri Lanka, but the South Australian knows keeping in India will be another matter entirely.
"Expect the ball every ball. Expect it's coming your way and be mentally clear. Be fresh as possible from ball to ball, know it's going to be a tough tour at times and expect the ball every time," Carey said."Preparations will ramp-up over the next few days but we've been on tours in the last 12 months to Pakistan and Sri Lanka so there's a good taste over there.
"Coming off some Big Bash cricket is a bit different to the longer format but I'm excited to get behind the stumps and see what unfolds." Carey has also been in contact with legendary former Australian keepers Ian Healy, Adam Gilchrist and Brad Haddin as he attempts to master the tricky Indian conditions."In Pakistan and Sri Lanka, Hads was there and Heals reached out before we went to Pakistan.The tour marks the beginning of the final frontier for the Australians.
