•Volleyball or frisbee: Teams have various methods of warming up — gone are the days where players would just run laps. These games make team mates bond with each other as well.

•Portable massage table: A must for international cricketers in today’s hectic calendar. When folded, it looks like an oversized brief case.

•Plastic cones: Used to define the boundary of a player’s warm-up area, and for other training drills.

•Zinc cream: Pragyan Ojha and Ramesh Powar are perhaps its biggest brand ambassadors. It takes a fair amount of time to apply the white layer on a cricketer’s face.

•I-pod: Last, but not least important. Players, for example Sachin Tendulkar, Harbhajan Singh, Yuvraj Singh and Sreesanth, use it to unwind before and after games.
