'Please continue to be captain of CSK' - Pilot confesses his admiration for MS Dhoni on flight

MS Dhoni is arguably one of the greatest cricketers and skippers in the history of the sport. The 41-year-old has won almost everything in international cricket, from the ODI World Cup to the ICC Champions Trophy, MS Dhoni has left behind a legacy that will be tough to follow.

In the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, MS Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings will take on Mumbai Indians in one of the most anticipated matches of the tournament on April 8. On CSK's way to Mumbai on the flight, the pilot made an announcement where he acknowledged Dhoni's legacy and requested him to continue being the skipper of Chennai Super Kings.

"Please continue to be a captain of CSK. I'm a huge fan of you, sir," the pilot said in a video that is going viral on social media.

Chennai Super Kings gear up for thrilling clash against Mumbai Indians

Four-time champions Chennai Super Kings have got off to a decent start to the IPL 2023, winning one game and losing one so far against Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans, respectively. Their next game promises to be a thriller as they take on Mumbai Indians in one of the most anticipated matches of the season.

Their opponents, Mumbai Indians, have played one game in the IPL 2023 so far, when they lost to the Faf du Plessis-led Royal Challengers Bangalore. The Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai would be keen on registering their first win of the season, but it would be no easy task as they face Chennai.

The visitors look stronger on paper, and with players like Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, and Moeen Ali in exceptional form, Chennai will go into the game desperate to get the two points. On the other hand, if the top-order of the hosts can come through and improve their performance from the last game, Mumbai Indians could have a big chance of clinching the win against CSK.
