'Ground of memories': MS Dhoni posed for a photo with groundstaff despite CSK's loss

NEW DELHI: Former CSK skipper and cricketing legend MS Dhoni exemplified sportsmanship by posing for a photograph with the groundstaff in a poignant moment following Chennai Super Kings' 20-run loss to the Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League at Visakhapatnam.

Despite the defeat, Dhoni's explosive cameo with the bat left an indelible mark on the match.

CSK's official X (formerly Twitter) handle shared the heartwarming image, captioned, "In the ground of memories! #DCvCSK #WhistlePodu #Yellove," underscoring the bond between the players and the unsung heroes behind the scenes.

Delhi Capitals clinched their first win of the IPL 2024 season with a commanding 20-run triumph over the defending champions at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium.

Dhoni's late onslaught, a 16-ball 37* adorned with four boundaries and three sixes, thrilled the thousands in attendance, reaffirming his status as a cricketing icon.

Despite the loss, Dhoni's gesture epitomized the spirit of the game, transcending the boundaries of victory and defeat.
