Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are battling it out in Eden Gardens in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. Just before the start of the game, the fans from the ‘Yellove Army’ filled up the Eden Gardens in Kolkata in huge numbers. In some images that have come in a sea of yellow has taken over Eden Gardens. There were several reports coming in that this could be MS Dhoni’s last IPL and so the fans want every bit of the CSK skipper.
MS Dhoni has been in good form this IPL. The role of the CSK skipper has changed a lot. Now he comes in at number 7 and tonks the big hits. He has relished that role greatly. MS Dhoni’s impactful cameos in this IPL have made all the fans across the country go ga ga about him. Before the IPL started MS Dhoni’s powerful physique and wonderful body shape had made a lot of headlines. Many pundits said that the way MS Dhoni shaped up would help him reinvent his power game.
MS Dhoni has led CSK to four titles in the Indian Premier League
MS Dhoni has a great record against KKR. CSK and KKR have had some very thrilling matches over the years. MS Dhoni has made 551 runs against KKR. He has an average of 42.38 and a strike rate of 132.45. He has two half-centuries against them. Dhoni has the highest score of 66 against this franchise.
They were not wrong about this at all. The power of CSK and MS Dhoni is like none other. Images like this could also remind one of 2018. When CSK won their third IPL title after coming back from the two-year ban due to alleged spot-fixing. Even at that point in time, there was a sea of yellow wherever CSK played. In 2018 only one game happened at the Chepauk. All of CSK’s other games were shifted to Pune.
Even in 2018 just like the present, the response from the fans has been overwhelming for CSK. MS Dhoni recently said in a post-match interview with Harsha Bhogle that he thanked the people of Chennai and Tamil Nadu for showering him with so much love. MS Dhoni has led CSK to four IPL titles and has made them qualify for the IPL playoffs 11 times. CSK is one of the most consistent franchises in the IPL.
