New Delhi: India captain Virat Kohli on Wednesday shared "surreal experience" he witnessed before embarking on the Men In Blue's tour to the Caribbean for a multi-format series, beginning August 3.

Kohli took to Instagram to post a video of the crowd that turned out for an event in Mumbai to see the Indian skipper.





"Just before I left for the WI series, I had a surreal experience at the #Philips event in Mumbai. Thank you everyone for all the love and support, it was truly amazing," Kohli captioned the video.
