Hi Nischay,

You should drink plenty today, the day before the tournament.  Then during the day drink a little bit but very regularly.

Another little trick is to put something cool on your neck in between matches.  If there are showers available at the venue then also cool off by having a cool shower or even just wetting you head.  Before a game run your hands under cool water which will help to keep them cool, at least initially in the match and make your palms less slippery.
