Previously, captain Kohli and his men have been seen enjoying some down time after India defeated Sri Lanka in the three-Test series in September.
Earlier in the day, captain Kohli was seen spending time in the gym. India all-rounder Hardik Pandya, Manish Pandey and leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal were also seen working out alongside their skipper.
