Smriti said she sleeps a lot everywhere. "I sleep a lot everywhere. The UK is very good because it is behind [the Indian time] and that really suits me, because then I can sleep early and then I am up at 5.30-6 am. That is the only country where I can get up at 5.30-6 am," she told teammate Jemima Rodrigues in a video posted on bcci.tv. IANS
