MS Dhoni and Sakshi set to welcome their Second Child

MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings went on to become the second most successful IPL team after defeating the Kolkata Knight Riders in the Final of IPL 2021 on Friday. It is for the fourth time that MS Dhoni’s side has won the title.

After a disappointing last season, it has been a big turnaround for the Chennai side. The Chennai Super Kings was the first team to get eliminated in the 13th season of the India Premier League. Ever since then, Dhoni’s side never looked back and went on to finish the 2020 season on a high, with 3 wins in their last 3 matches.

The first leg of IPL 2021 was again very fruitful for the Chennai side as they managed to win 5 out of their 7 matches. Coming into the UAE, CSK became the first team to qualify for the playoffs after winning their first 4 matches.

The match had started to go Kolkata’s way after their openers Shubhman Gill and Venkatesh Iyer gave a flying start to the side in the run-chase. It was then in the 11th over when the match turned on its head. Shardul Thakur struck twice in the over and removed the dangerous-looking Venkatesh Iyer.

In the same over, he tricked Nitish Rana, who had just come into the crease, to give an easy catch to Faf at mid-on. KKR then kept on losing wickets and never came back in the match. They lost 8 wickets in the span of just 34 runs. CSK, in the end, won convincingly by 27 runs.
