New Delhi: Virat Kohli and his men are having the time of their lives ahead of the Test series against West Indies in the Caribbean island.

Along with coach Anil Kumble, Indian cricketers have been a part of several fun-filled activities.

The cricketers have made sure to update their fans about their whereabouts by posting plenty of photographs on social media.

But one of those photographs landed wicketkeeper batsman Lokesh Rahul into trouble.

Few days back, Rahul had posted a photo through his Twitter account where he can be seen holding a beer pint in his hand.

As per a report in The Hindu, some BCCI officials weren't happy with players posting such images on social media. A clear message has been sent to the team manager to ensure that nothing that could set a bad example to kids should be uploaded.

As quoted by the Hindu, BCCI offical said, “Many kids blindly follow the star cricketers’ actions on and off the field, so our boys have got to always keep that in mind. They should always consider the sense and sensitivities of Indian cricket fans.”

After landing himself into the controversy, Rahul has now deleted the pic from his Twitter account.

The first Test between India and West Indies is scheduled to begin from July 21.
