England's Jonny Bairstow shared on Instagram about the team's 38+ hour economy class flight to Guwahati for their World Cup warmup match against India. He posted a picture of a player surrounded by co-passengers on the flight and captioned it "utter chaos". Bairstow mentioned the long journey saying "last leg incoming...been some trip" and "38 hours and counting". The England squad reached Guwahati along with the Indian players. England have two warmup games scheduled before the World Cup - against India and then Bangladesh in Guwahati.
