As the Indian team gears up to take on the West Indies in the first Test, starting in Antigua on Thursday, July 21, a look at what some of the players have been up to on social media.

Captain Virat Kohli tweeted a childhood picture when the chubby kid was snapped having a burger.

He may have been plump those days, but today he is one of the fittest cricketers around.

'Throwback to a time when I would eat everything. No wonder I turned into a chubby boy. Feasting on burgers in this,' Kohli tweeted.

Coach Anil Kumble's photographic skills are awesome. A stunning click from the spin legend from his hotel room in Antigua.

'Beautiful View from my room in Antigua! #sunset #CoachCamera #WIvIND #TeamIndia @BCCI,' Kumble tweeted.

India's practice session was hampered by rain on the eve of the first Test on Wednesday at the Sir Vivian Richards stadium in Antigua.

'The practice session has been stopped as it is pouring down at the moment,' tweeted BCCI.

Opener Shikhar Dhawan was yearning for a cup of tea as he waited in the hotel lobby for the team bus ahead of the practice session.

'Waiting for the bus!!! Bas koi chai le aaye garma garam!!!?' tweeted the left-hander.

Opening partner Murali Vijay was keeping himself busy with a few rounds of cycling.

'Trying yo finish my warm up little early #moretolife #lovetoall,' Vijay posted on Instagram.

Ajinkya Rahane and K L Rahul had a moment of their lives when they got to interact with the legendary Viv Richards.

'So happy to meet sir Vivian Richards @vivrichards56 and discuss cricket. Memorable day for me. #legend,' wrote Rahane on Twitter.

'Major fan boy moment ? Sir viv was kind enough to give us some advice. #blessed #bossman what a legend.?,' Rahul tweeted.
