India all-rounder Washington Sundar says Japan gives the impression of being “10-15 years ahead of time,” citing its advanced technology and well-maintained surroundings. He also says the Indian team is excited to take part in a historic one-off men’s T20I against the hosts at Sano.
The report frames Sundar’s comments as part of the team’s overall experience in Japan ahead of the match. While the available coverage focuses on his comparison and his enthusiasm for the game, it does not add other players’ viewpoints, detailed team strategy, or broader commentary from Japanese officials. Instead, the emphasis remains on the cultural and infrastructure contrast he observes, alongside the significance of the single match.
