Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Mumbai Indians spent their day out on a beach near their team hotel in Abu Dhabi as the team took a small break from their preparations ahead of the IPL 2020 season opener.
The weather in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is usually quite hot (around 38-40 degrees Celsius) during this time of the year, and a visit to the beach for the squad provided a much-needed break.
The Mumbai Indians' social media handles posted a video from the leisurely outing as the players, along with some members of their team support staff, indulged in a game of beach football.

The family members of the players who have travelled to the UAE were also present at the beach. After the game of beach football was over, the players went in for a dip into the sea to cool off.
