Champions Trophy: Here's how the Men in Blue celebrated their victory over New Zealand

Defending champions India hit all the right chords during their resounding 45-run victory against New Zealand via Duckworth-Lewis method in a rain- curtailed warm-up game where skipper Virat Kohli came good after an impressive show from the bowlers.

With the hectic tour only getting started, members of Team India decided to have a memorable night out in London to celebrate their victory. Fast-bowler Umesh Yadav shared a picture with his followers on social media, where he is seen sitting along with Kohli, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Kedar Jadhav and Ajinkya Rahane.

The Men in Blue are idolised back home in India, hence, the happiness on their faces to be able to have a peaceful public night-out is there for all to see in the picture.

"Had a good time with my team mates #dinner#fun#," was Umesh's caption for the image.

Here's his post:

Comeback man Mohammed Shami (3/47 in 8 overs) along with Bhuvneshwar Kumar (3/28 in 6.4 overs) shared bulk of the spoils to dismiss New Zealand for a meagre 189 in 38.4 overs.

In reply, India were 129 for 3 in 26 overs, when rain stopped play but they were comfortably ahead of the Black Caps as per Duckworth-Lewis par score of 84 after 26 overs. Kohli started his English summer on a bright note hitting an unbeaten 52 off 55 balls while Dhoni also played some delightful strokes square off the wicket.

It was one such day where everything went in favour of India. Even though it's practice game but Kohli will gain a lot of confidence from the victory after a string of demoralizing defeats in the recently concluded Indian Premier League.
