Virat Kohli-led India Test squad arrived in Colombo to a very warm welcome on Monday. The fifteen-member squad will play a warm-up game and three Tests on the tour.

The tour gives Virat Kohli an opportunity to prove his credentials as Test captain. This will be Virat’s first Test against the island neighbours as he has only played the shorter format against them.

Here’s a look at Indian cricket team’s arrival:
