Virat Kohli's Indian cricket team is having a lot of fun in the Caribbean. Ahead of their second warm-up match in St. Kitts from Thursday, the team has mixed business and pleasure in equal measure. The first match, a two-day affair, ended in a draw.
Head coach Anil Kumble, who has fond memories of the West Indies, has charted an enjoyable course that will keep the team healthy in mind and body ahead of the gruelling four-Test series starting in Antigua on July 21.
A 4-0 win in the West Indies could propel India to the top spot in Tests and put them in a good space for the home winter, where they will play 13 Tests against the likes of England, Australia and New Zealand.
While Kumble is maximum use of his camera, his wards are busy with some adventure sports like snorkeling and diving.
