During the Captains' Press Conference, Rashid dismissed any significant advantage from playing conditions or past Indian Premier League (IPL) experiences, underscoring that effort in training outvalues luck.
Other captains, including South Africa's Aiden Markram and England's Harry Brook, voiced similar sentiments, focusing on consistent performance and strategic gameplay. Teams prepare to leverage skills honed from prior tournaments, with guidance from experienced figures, such as Gary Kirsten in Namibia and Canada's recent Sri Lanka preparations impacting their readiness.
