Team India on Wednesday banned open net practice sessions after more than 5,000 spectators came to the Adelaide Oval to watch the side, according to a report from The Age.
According to the report, the tourists felt uncomfortable during the open net session amid a carnival atmosphere on the ground. However, Australia's sessions will be open to the fans.
A Cricket Australia spokesperson said that India expressed their preference for the remaining training sessions, and wants it to be under closed doors to minimise potential noise or distractions.
