Dhoni put up a super show at the PCA Stadium in Mohali and brought down the equation in CSK’s favour from a situation where defeat looked inevitable. His 44-ball 79 while braving a back injury with a few painkillers and a short massage won hearts on social media as the fans witnessed the old fearless Dhoni at his best.
Apart from Dhoni’s incredible performance with the bat, a moment of bromance between Kings XI Punjab star Yuvraj Singh and him also became the talking point of the match with fans getting nostalgic seeing the old mates bring back memories from the past. In a video posted by Indian Premier League (IPL)’s official Twitter account, Yuvraj can be seen giving Dhoni a short head massage while he was lying on the ground after pulling a back muscle. After running hastily for a couple of runs, Dhoni had to seek medical attention and was seen taking painkillers while batting in the second innings of the game between Kings XI Punjab and Chennai Super Kings.
The video posted by IPL has been retweeted close to 2000 time and has been liked over 9000 times in just 15 hours of being posted. The video has also received a plethora of comments from cricket fans across the country who were left in awe of the heartwarming moment involving the two cricketers.
