Meanwhile, MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings managed to attract the most attention with their special gesture.

Even though veteran MS Dhoni decided to skip this year's auction, his team Chennai Super Kings ensured to somehow make his presence felt in a very unique way.

The Chennai-based franchise paid tribute to Mahi by sporting shirts with Dhoni’s iconic line – ‘Definitely Not’ imprinted on them.

Post CSK's dismal outing in UAE, there were speculations that MS Dhoni might even decide to not play IPL anymore but it did not happen.
