Team India returns home from successful Caribbean tour

A triumphant Indian cricket team returned home from the West Indies after winning its fifth consecutive one-day series. The squad boarded a connecting flight from London,which landed at approximately 0100 hours at the Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport.

Most of the players barring skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni,all-rounder Abhishek Nair and batsman Rohit Sharma managed to avoid the media glare and sneaked through the backdoor. The team won the first and third one-dayer,at Kingston and Gros Islet,to clinch the four match series 2-1. West Indies won the second ODI by eight wickets,while the fourth and final match of the series was washed out.

The battle-weary team,which had a grueling last season,will enjoy a welcome two-month break before heading off to Sri Lanka in September,where it will participate in a tri-series also involving New Zealand.
