On Wednesday night, Dhoni took out some time to meet one of his lady fans at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. She had held a poster which read, ‘I AM HERE ONLY FOR DHONI’.
After the match against Mumbai Indians (MI), Dhoni came out of the team dressing room and met the elderly lady accompanied by a young girl. Dhoni had a brief chat with her, had selfies with them and also autographed a CSK jersey for them.
Here’s the video:
Dhoni’s CSK tasted the first loss in the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Thursday night. MI beat the yellow army by 37 runs to gain two more points in the tournament.
Chasing 171 for victory, Rohit Sharma & Co. restricted the CSK to 133 for 8 in 20 overs with Hardik Pandya and Lasith Malinga bagging three wickets apiece.
“I think quite a few things went wrong for us. I think we started off well and 12th-13th over also we were on the mark, but after that, there were some drops and misfields. The death bowling also didn't come off. It was slightly tough on them,” Dhoni said after the match.
“We do more one-on-one stuff than team meetings. On a wicket like this, what is important is carefully study which boundaries they could have cut off, and where is the error in execution. Momentum totally depends on where you are at,” MS Dhoni added.
