SNAPSHOT: Team India Celebrate 4-0 Series Win Over England With Injured Players In Chennai

After smashing England 4-0 in the recently concluded five-match Test series, Team India lift the Anthony De Mello Trophy at Chepauk Stadium in Chennai which saw some familiar faces who were participating in the series and had been released due to injuries, before being called to be a part of a team celebration.

In an interesting move, the injured players have flown to Chennai after Captain Virat Kohli and Head Coach Anil Kumble had requested the BCCI and players to join the team celebration, a day before the final day of the fifth Test.

Middle order batsman Ajinkya Rahane, gloveman Wriddhiman Saha, fast bowler Mohammed Shami and promising all-rounder Hardik Pandya were part of the post-series celebration.

“The players had been informed — on behalf of the team — by the BCCI to come to Chennai for a day and all of them were more than happy to be a part of the celebration. As you know, this team is more like a family,” the member of the Indian team said, quoted as saying by CricketNext.

Without wasting his time, Kohli posted a customary team photo on Instagram and called his team a second family, which indeed is, for such professional cricketers.

In most of his press conferences after taking over the Test captaincy, Kohli has time and again called it as the “team performance” while lavishing some praise on his teammates for giving their best for each other as a unit. And this shows how well they have gelled and embraced the team.

The success of teams is not measured solely by individual talent, but by how well they gel with each other and Team India has set the same kind of an example which had shared both these characteristics to give a befitting reply to its opponents.
