MS Dhoni picked up the ball and handed it to a young fan in the stadium while returning to the dressing room. This warm gesture by the former Indian cricket team captain has gone viral on the internet, garnering praise from CSK fans.
The Sunday match at the Wankhede stadium was a treat for all the CSK fans across the nation. The yellow wave was uncontrollable, and Thala was definitely the star of the show.
MS Dhoni came to bat at the last over and scored a flying 20 runs off just 4 balls, leaving the stadium chanting his name as he smashed one boundary after another on skipper Hardik Pandya's bowling.
But the former CSK captain not only delights his fans on the field; his off-field moments are just as precious to them. One such moment was captured during the match when Mahi was returning to the dressing room.
He saw a little girl and picked up the ball, handing it to her, showcasing a kind gesture that probably made the young fan's day. The moment was captured by the cameras and posted on X (formerly Twitter) by the official account of JioCinema with a brief caption, "Mahi bhai".
