Ahead of the upcoming first Test against New Zealand, Team India had a grueling training session on Tuesday.

Every squad member went out to the middle to fine-tune their skills ahead of the two-match series against the Kiwis.

BCCI's official Twitter handle shared some stills and captioned the post as: "When #TeamIndia hit the ground running in Kanpur ahead of the 1st #INDvNZ Test."

Meanwhile, Team India batsman KL Rahul has sustained a muscle strain on his left thigh and has been ruled out of the upcoming 2-match Test series against New Zealand.
