It is in common parlance that MS Dhoni is arguably one the most successful skippers for both India and his IPL franchise CSK. Dhoni once again hogged tabloid space after he led his team to a clinical win over Kolkata Knight Riders in the battle of the IPL table toppers in Chepauk on Tuesday. However it was just not Dhoni's on field heroics but his off the green turf moment which has sent the cricketing fans into a tizzy. Dhoni once again exhibited his modest and simplistic attitude which has made him an iconic figure among cricket fans all over the world. CSK's 'captain cool' was seen sleeping on the ground in the Chennai airport right next to his wife Sakshi soon after the match between Chennai and Kolkata Knight Riders on Tuesday where his side won to take pole position in the points table of the ongoing  Indian Premier League (IPL). After securing a comprehensive win over KKR, it was but obvious that the CSK players were tired and drained out. While all the players decided to just sit in the airport and wait for the flight to Jaipur for their next game against Rajasthan Royals, Dhoni made the most of the time and lay flat on the ground to take a quick nap. His wife Sakshi was also seen taking a nap alongside him. Dhoni himself took to Instagram to post a snap of that moment, writing:
