Last night, right after the IPL 2023 final showdown, Chennai Super Kings and MS Dhoni are the names that echoed in every nook and corner of India.
There is no word to explain the love and affection that MS Dhoni receives from his beloved fans. That too fans from his second home Chennai will flex to a greater extent to have the THALA Tharisanam.
CSK Victory Celebration
Ahead of his IPL 2023 appearance, everyone thought that they might not get a chance to see their THALA in the yellow jersey and rushed to the stadium every match to support him. Apart from Chepauk, MS Dhoni received a grand welcome in every stadium he played.
But MS Dhoni made a strong statement regarding his IPL future during the IPL 2023 final post-match presentation.
Even though it might be an away game for the CSK, the stadium will be filled with YELLOW jerseys. MS Dhoni-led CSK also played with their full effort to not break their beloved fans’ hearts and finished in the 2nd spot in IPL 2023 points table.
They also become the first team to be qualified for the IPL 2023 final by beating Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 1 in Chepauk. Right after their qualifier victory, many fans believed that CSK will definitely lift their 5th title by winning this season.
But everything starts to go against CSK on the final day. The crowd at the Ahmedabad stadium was left heartbroken right after the match on Sunday was postponed to its reserve day as the rain stopped the game.
Being a working day(Monday) everyone expected that there might be a dip in the crowd for the final game. But turning it down, once again MS Dhoni’s fans made a yellow wave in Gujarat’s home ground.
MS Dhoni with his master mind once again proved his worth by leading the team towards a glorious victory. It is worth mentioning, Jadeja played a massive role in the victory which is undeniable but everyone knows the master behind it.
Though social media was filled with Jadeja vs Dhoni fight conspiracy, everything was scattered at the moment when MS Dhoni lifts Jadeja in the joy of victory.
Following their glorious victory in Gujarat, MSD and CSK travelled to their hotel with their trophy where they were given a massive welcome. The joy can be felt by everyone who ever watched the video posted by CSK on their official Twitter handle.
At the end of that video, MS Dhoni can be seen cutting a cake which was decorated in FIVE layers with a trophy over it. The five-layer mentions the five trophies they won in the tournament so far.
