The Indian men's cricket team is currently touring Japan for the Asian Games 2026. After their first match against the Japan cricket team on September 22, the players had some time to explore the local culture and scenery. Fans have seen images of cricketers like Shreyas Iyer and Abhishek Sharma enjoying their off-field moments in Japan.
