World T20 2012, to be played in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 in September/October.

The wicketkeeper/batsman understands that his team will be facing a stern challenge in the remainder of the year but the five-day version of the sport is his real concern, which tends to test the physical fitness of the players. Dhoni
however, is happy that his team earned a long break before the start of the season, refreshing the boys after a busy 2011.
"In the coming year, the schedule is quite busy. Also we will be playing a lot of Test matches, it is quite tough. You play on for five days in a row. The amount of Tests we are playing, it is good we got such kind of rest," the cricketer
from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jharkhand-c800 said.
In the camp organized in Chennai for the Sri Lankan tour’s preparation and also after landing in the Island, Dhoni mentioned that the Men in Blue are working hard on their fitness. The 31-year-old is geared up to start the new season
in style by dismantling the Islanders at their own backyard.
Dhoni added, "Last few days, we have mixed up our training, not only with the skill sessions, we have involved a lot of fitness sessions also, I don't think fitness should be a real concern. It is just that after a long time, we will be playing a full 50-over
game."
