Watch: 'Our young, exciting batsman' - Rahul Dravid introduces Shubman Gill to Sir Garfield Sobers in Barbados

The Indian team is in Barbados preparing for the Test series against the hosts West Indies, and the players had the privilege to meet the legendary Sir Garfield Sobers.

The BCCI tweeted a video of the players meeting the legend, with coach Rahul Dravid introducing the new young players of the squad.

"This is Shubman Gill. One of our most young and exciting batsmen," said Rahul Dravid, as Gill walked up to shake hands with Sobers, who could also been seen in a light moment with Virat Kohli.

"In Barbados & in the company of greatness! #TeamIndia meet one of the greatest of the game - Sir Garfield Sobers," the caption in BCCI's tweet read.

India's tour begins with the two-Test series, starting in Dominica on July 12. The white-ball leg of the tour will see the two teams playing a series of three ODIs and five T20Is.
