Well, the Champions Trophy is done and dusted.
Unfortunately, this one time, we won the battle against Pakistan (in the league stage) but lost the war (come the final).
Congratulations to Pakistan on a great final, and an even greater comeback into the tournament.
Despite that forgettable outing, the Indian team can still hold its head high for the quality of cricket they showed.
The fact that our bench strength could make it to most Playing XI lineups is a statement in itself.
Time now, for the West Indies series.
It is a turbulent time too in Indian cricket - with Kumble having hung his boots in his own, quiet way.
Ravi Shastri has thrown his hat in the ring and looks all set to join forces with Virat - the two making their partnership and association quite legendary already.
So here's hoping the Indian team keeps us occupied more with its on-field shenanigans than with all the off-field exploits.
So here's to Team India..go India go, conquer the Caribbean shores, for it is hopefully only the beginning for many more away tours, and many more memorable victories!
Jai Ho!
