Team India cricketers left for the West Indies on Tuesday for their upcoming white-ball series. The Men in Blue will begin their tour with three ODIs, starting July 22. The ODIs will be followed by a five-match T20I series.

India are fresh from a series win against England and will hope to keep the winning momentum going against the Men in Maroon.

A couple of cricketers shared pictures from their journey on social media platforms. All-rounder Shardul Thakur posted a picture with Yuzvendra Chahal from the aircraft, while Shubman Gill was spotted with Ishan Kishan.
