Indian cricket team is undoubtedly one of the most complete cricketing units in the world in current times. The Men in Blue are winning matches and tournaments and hover around the top three positions in the ICC rankings for best team (in both ODI and Test). This is the result of the endless training sessions and net sessions that the Indian cricketers take on a daily basis. But as they say, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy; th e Indian cricketers also know how to maintain a balance between tough training and unwinding.

Be it vacations with family or sneaking out of a foreign tour, the stalwarts of the current Indian team are never shy of exploring new lands.

1. Virat Kohli, the captain, leads the pack

2. Rohit Sharma known for his effortless style of batting and sublime timing, knows how to travel in style


You could be an international cricketer, but it is hard to resist the clichéd but mandatory shot of sitting next to a statue on a vacation.


Not the best of selfies but at least he didn’t attempt to make a pout!
