The members of the Indian cricket team, who recently lost to Australia in the World Test Championship final, are making the most of their rare free time before their scheduled matches in the West Indies. The team’s tour starts on July 12, and the squad for the Test, ODI, and T20I series is yet to be announced.
Only one cricketer from the 15-member squad and the three travelling reserves is currently in action on the field. Meanwhile, the other players are enjoying their leisure time in different ways.
For instance, Indian team captain Rohit Sharma is currently spending time with his family in Europe. Opener Shubman Gill is in Paris and visited the PSG home stadium Parc des Princes. Cheteshwar Pujara’s whereabouts are unknown, but he may be in the UK for the next set of County Championship matches.
Former India captain Virat Kohli’s location is also unknown, but it’s certain that the fitness enthusiast is hitting the gym daily. Ajinkya Rahane, the team’s most successful batter in the WTC final, is in London with his wife. Ravindra Jadeja is at his home in Jamnagar, Gujarat, India.
Spin wizard Ravichandran Ashwin is already on the field, making headlines for reviewing a review in a match for his TNPL team Dindigul Dragons. Wicketkeeper-batter KS Bharat is expectedly in India, and fast bowler Umesh Yadav is visiting London with his wife, where they have met several people, including an astrologer and philanthropist.
Off-spinner Axar Patel is vacationing with his wife in Switzerland. Young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, who was on stand-by for the WTC final, is chilling near the River Thames in the UK. Suryakumar Yadav hasn’t provided any confirmation of his location, but his social media story suggests that he is enjoying the Ashes action between Australia and England.
Finally, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami, and Shardul Thakur have not provided any updates regarding their whereabouts. Fans of the team are eagerly awaiting news of the complete squad for the West Indies tour.
