Flight delayed? Stuck at the airport?

No problem for the Men in Blue. They know how to preserve their energy and RELAX.

 

Mahendra Singh Dhoni and skipper Virat Kohli have no inhibition about sleeping and sitting on the floor.

That is how they relax after taking a 1-0 lead against the Aussies.

The Indian and Australian players landed in Kolkata on Monday afternoon for the second ODI of the five-match series to be played at Eden Gardens on Thursday.

Dressed it white T-shirts, the 'men-in-blue' looked relaxed as they headed straight to the team hotel along with their support staff and chief coach Ravi Shastri.

"There's no practice schedule today and everyone will be resting," the local Team India manager said at Kolkata airport after both the teams landed via a chartered flight.

Courtesy Hardik Pandya's blistering career-best 66-ball 83 and Dhoni's 79 off 88 balls, India posted a competitive 281 for seven.

India beat Australia by 26 runs via Duckworth-Lewis method in the rain-affected match in Chennai. They now head to Kolkata for the second ODI.
