Sydney: The touring Indian cricketers and their home team counterparts were hosted by Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott on Thursday for an afternoon tea at his official residence on the New Year's Day.
Players from both sides posed for the official photo session with Abbott at Kirribilli House, his second official residence.
Dressed in their casual Team India T-Shirts and trousers, the players were photographed with Abbott with the BCCI posting the pictures on its Twitter handle.
"The Indian cricket team was hosted for afternoon tea by Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott on the first day of the new year, on Thursday," the BCCI said.

It remains unclear whether he attended the event or not.
