Watch: Team India’s Wild Champagne Celebration After Series Win As Teammates Target Skipper Rohit Sharma

The England vs India ODI series ended on a winning note for Team India as they thrashed the hosts by five wickets in the third and final ODI. Following the victory on Sunday, the Men in Blue claimed a 2-1 series win.

Chasing 260 in Manchester, India were in all sorts of trouble. Reece Topley ran through India’s top-order and dismissed Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in quick succession to leave the tourists reeling at 38 for 3.

Even before India could recover from these setbacks, Suryakumar Yadav departed too as India found themselves 4 down for just 78. But before England could make further inroads, Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya revived India’s hopes and put the team on the path of victory.

The duo added 133 runs for the fifth wicket to put India on top before Pandya’s knock came to an end. The star allrounder scored 71 off just 55 balls. Pant then shared an unbeaten stand of 56 runs with Ravindra Jadeja to take India home in just the 43rd over.

Unlike Pandya, Pant made the most his start and went on to score his maiden ODI ton. The wicketkeeper-batsman, who could have been stumped on 18, remained unbeaten on 125 runs.

Earlier in the game, Pandya starred with the ball to help India bowl out England for 259. The allrounder picked up 4 wickets for just 24 runs as England failed to post a big total despite 60 from captain Jos Buttler.

Team India celebrate England vs India series win with champagne:

Team India celebrated the series win in style. Soon after the post-match presentation ceremony came to an end, Team India players popped the champagne bottles.

While the players sprayed the champagne on each other, skipper Rohit Sharma looked like a common target for all of them. Even Virat Kohli was all smiles as he saw his teammates spraying champagne at his successor.

At one stage, Rohit even told his teammates: “Photo toh le lo yar (Guys, at least pose for the photo)” but it did not make any difference as the players continued their celebration.

Here is a clip of Team India’s celebration after winning the England vs India ODI series:
