Team India arrived in West Indies on Friday for the upcoming two-match Test series starting from July 12. Interestingly, the players flew in batches as The Board of Control for Cricket in India could not find tickets for same flight.
India captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will take their flight from Paris and London respectively. It is still not clear when the two star batters will join the squad. Rohit and Kohli are currently spending time with their families. According to The Indian Express reports, they will reach the destination next week.
India will also play one practice game. The sub-continent team and West Indies have faced each other on 98 occasions, with India winning 22. On the other hand, the hosts have won 30 Tests.
The two teams last met in the Test series in 2019 with India defeating the Windies by a 2-0 margin.
