But the celebrations did not end with champagne. The team members freshened up and were down at the Mix Bar, where they celebrated till 3 am. All the team members except manager Prakash Dixit joined the celebrations, where the team danced to the tune of Daler Mehndi. Sachin Tendulkar decided to relax through a game of snooker but was stopped in his tracks by Yuvraj Singh, who got the little master on to the dance floor.
Sri Lankan batsman Thilina Kandamby peeped in, saw the Indians in full flight and decided against entering the room. It is learnt that some team members continued their celebrations in the rooms of Tendulkar and Dhoni.
Both teams play the fourth one-dayer at the Premadasa today.
