They are scheduled to play a two-day warm-up tie starting on December 30 before taking on South Africa in the first Test on January 5. "I totally empathise with Kohli. That is a fact. What we recognise as Future Tour Programme (FTP) has been drawn up such that all the state associations get chances to generate revenue by conducting matches. And unfortunately, it is the players because of whom these revenue comes and their interests are not taken care of. We will ensure that there is a balance in the three formats from next year," he added.
