Hone your skills in home Test series, says McGrath

While the five Tests (two against Bangladesh and three against New Zealand) at home will present their own set of challenges to the newlyappointed support staff under head coach Gautam Gambhir, the tour of Australia starting in late November will remain on the radar for Rohit Sharma and company.

"The conditions in India and Australia are different," McGrath, who is in Chennai for his coaching stint at the MRF Pace Foundation, told this daily.
