Ekana Sports City: Former Test captain Tim Paine, who was head coach of the Australia A programme in Lucknow and Kanpur, believes the recent tour of India has provided the country's emerging cricketers with the kind of experience that will benefit them when called upon for Test cricket in the subcontinent.

India 'A' unofficial ODI series against Australia A ended 2-1. Paine believes the series provided cricketers with experience that “you can’t put a price on” as they adapted to extreme heat, unfamiliar wickets, and a contrasting style of play.
