All-rounder Kedar Jadhav, who is part of the ODI squad, posted pictures with Dhoni and Rohit on social media before departure. “Off to Australia with @msdhoni @ImRo45,” tweeted Jadhav.

Rohit, who was also in the Test squad, had flown back to Mumbai for the birth of his first daughter. 

The Indian cricket team ended the fourth and final Test in Sydney in a draw on Monday to clinch a 2-1 series win over the Aussies and it was India’s first-ever series win in Australia. The rain gods played the spoilsport on Day 5 of the Sydney Test between Australia and India as the game ended in a draw. However, India had done enough to secure their first ever Test series victory by 2-1. The Indian team has worked hard when on the field, they also believe in partying hard whenever the results go their way.

India got the series off to the best possible start by winning the tight opening game in Adelaide by 31 runs on the last day — their first Test win in Australia in a decade. Australia bounced back in Perth to level the series, winning the match by 146 runs.

But another Pujara century in Melbourne set the visitors up for big first innings total and when Australia capitulated in reply to get bundled ut for a meager score of 151, the scene was set for India to take a stranglehold on the series coming into Sydney.
