Typhoon Dujuan disrupts India’s T20I prep ahead of historic Japan clash

Typhoon Dujuan has thrown a wrench into India’s preparations for its first‑ever T20I against Japan. The storm, which is expected to bring heavy rain and strong winds to eastern Japan, forced the Shreyas Iyer‑led side to cancel or postpone training sessions in the lead‑up to the match. Iyer has admitted that the exact conditions the team will face remain uncertain, adding a layer of unpredictability to an already historic encounter. The game, which will be played as part of the 75‑year celebration of diplomatic ties between the two countries, will test the adaptability of both squads. With the weather threat looming, the match’s outcome may hinge on how quickly the teams can adjust to the changing conditions, potentially affecting the strategies and player selection for the game.
