The win however did not see any Indian fans slam the team but what was a sight to witness was the amount of love and respect showered on members of Team India specially on one man —Virat Kohli.
There was also another person who wrote a heart-warming message to her husband and the Indian team. Skipper Dhoni’s wife Sakshi expressed her love for Dhoni and the team.
