The Indian cricket team has reached the Caribbean islands for the all-format tour of the West Indies. Upon touchdown, the players indulged themselves in a beach volleyball session. Ishan Kishan, one of the wicket-keeper batters in the squad, turned into a cameraman, capturing the enthralling volleyball game between players.
