Chennai Super Kings has defeated Mumbai Indians by 20 runs.
Five-time champion IPL Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are some of the most successful teams in the tournament. So, somewhere behind making this team so successful, former Indian captain MS Dhoni also has a hand in it.
However, before the start of IPL 2024, a major change was seen in the leadership of Chennai Super Kings. Dhoni, who made the team champion five times under his captaincy, handed over the captaincy to young Ruturaj Gaikwad. The bond between Gaikwad and Dhoni is also amazing. Even though Gaikwad is the captain of the team, Dhoni can be seen running the match as per his wish whenever he wants.
On the other hand, yesterday on April 14, when the 29th match of the ongoing IPL was played between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings, a photo of this match is going viral on the internet very fast. In this picture, before going on the field, Dhoni can be seen asking team captain Gaikwad to pat his back.
