No practice for Team India on Tuesday

Indian team, which will clash with the West Indies in their last league match in the Cricket World Cup on Sunday, skipped Tuesday's scheduled practice session.

Team manager Ranjib Biswal was not available for comment while media manager RN Baba had no clue about the cancellation of the session.

Coach Gary Kirsten on Tuesday joined the Indian squad, which is still without four players including star opening pair of Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag.

Gautam Gambhir and Yuvraj Singh are the other two players, who are expected to reach on Wednesday.

The quarterfinalists from Group B have not been identified as yet and five teams still have genuine chance to go into the knockout stage.

India on top with seven points from five matches while South Africa and West Indies (both four matches) and Bangladesh (five matches) have six points each.

England, with five points, must win their next game against West Indies to qualify for the last-eight stage.

Both the West Indies and England went about their preparation for the vital tie with rigorous batting, bowling and fielding sessions at the MA Chidambaram stadium.
