The Indian Premier League (IPL) will give India the edge at the ICC World Twenty20, according to India's chairman of selectors Krishnamachari Srikkant

India's national team players have been on the road for close to four months after a full tour of New Zealand in February was followed by the second edition of the IPL.

National team coach Gary Kirsten last week said mental fatigue could hamper India's chances of defending the title they won in South Africa in 2007, but former opener Srikkanth is confident the additional practice will prove invaluable.

In today's world, every nation is playing non-stop cricket, he said. It is tough on the players, but it's something that can't be helped. You have to get used to it and carry on in a professional way.

I agree that IPL was hectic for the cricketers, but it also gave them a lot of match practice and exposure.

Keeping in mind the World Cup, the event was really useful. There were so many close games, the kind which toughens up players. I'm very happy with the intensity the players have shown.
