Dhoni and men celebrate India's loss with wine and women

Team India’s three runs loss to Australia in Hyderabad on Thursday seems to have little impact on the men in blue as Dhoni and his teammates were seen partying at a hotel in Hyderabad after the match.

Photographs aired by television channel News X showed skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his teammates enjoying all the attentions showered to them by male and female fans at a party. The channel claimed that the party was held after India suffered a three runs defeat to Australia in the nail biting match in Hyderabad on Thursday.

Virender Sehwag, Harbhajan Singh, Ashish Nehra and Ravindra Jadeja were seen in the photographs.

The act by Dhoni and his teammates didn’t go down well with some cricketers and cricket fans.

‘MidDay’ quoted Ramji Dharod, a former Mumbai club cricketer as saying, "If what we saw on television is true (that the cricketers attended a party after the Hyderabad defeat) then it is very sad. As captain, these public appearances don't do his image good. It doesn't send out the right kind of signals especially to your juniors."
