Chennai Super Kings (CSK) has been one of the most celebrated teams in the Indian Premier League (IPL). They have the charismatic MS Dhoni as their skipper and have garnered a significant fan-base over the years. CSK are one of the most successful teams in the tournament having qualified for the top four every time under the leadership of Dhoni who is popularly referred to as ‘Thala’ by his fans.
They were handed a two-year suspension following involvement in betting and other undesired scandals. However, they have made a stupendous comeback and are currently holding the top position in the league table with five resounding victories in six games. The game which they lost against the Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) at the PCA Stadium in Mohali, also went right down to the wire.
Meanwhile, their leader in Dhoni has captained from the front and has also been among the runs, which comes as a major motivational tonic for the team. The former Indian cricketer has been on the receiving end of some flak from the public a few months ago and he has answered them appropriately by playing a couple of awe-inspiring knocks in the league.
A popular figure in Twitter
The franchise is one of the most followed teams in the social media platforms as well. CSK won their last game against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium. They found themselves in trouble when RCB notched a mammoth score on the board. They slumped further after losing quick wickets, but there was a certain batsman by the MS Dhoni who guided them to victory.
Subsequently, appreciations poured in for Dhoni on Twitter. Dhoni’s presence has been a massive factor in the popularity of the franchise. Twitter is a palpable proof of the same as their Emoji section is topped by CSK as well. For the time being, the team looks set to qualify for yet another playoff in the prestigious tournament.
