That is why they have been the most successful. The 2-3 partying teams have not been able to win the IPL trophy yet. There are also teams which have not won till date, they must have partied hard.

The entire team was paying special attention to ensure that the party did not continue till late night. We should have remembered that we are also playing for India. Why would my captain pick me if I don’t play well? Now, I am free, retired. So we can have a party.”
