New Delhi, March 10 (IANS) President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday congratulated the Indian cricket team for their eight-wicket victory against Ireland in a World Cup Pool B game.

The president in his message to the team congratulated them for winning five games on the trot in the quadrennial tournament.

“Bravo & well done Team India on the 5th straight win in the ICC World Cup 2015 by winning today's match against Ireland,” Mukherjee tweeted.
