A day ahead of India's first ODI against the West Indies, the visitors wanted to hit the nets. However, the rain Gods had other plans. But instead of waiting around or letting the day go by, the players had an indoors net session.

That presents an opportunity for talented and eager fringe players to make the most of the stars' absences at the expense of a team that was swept 3-0 by Bangladesh in Guyana the previous week.
