Now, Ms Dhoni is more than just a cricketer, but she is an emotional experience for millions of fans, especially in Chennai. Every time he appears on the bat, when the fans go wild just to see the fansβ beloved βcod,β a sound decibel often shoots, and the stadium turns into a yellow sea.
Whether CSK plays in Chennai or not, Dhoniβs presence fills the stand and lifts energy. Dhoniβs gentle attitude, charismatic captain and ability to finish the game have made him one of the gameβs most beloved and respected players.
If a cricketer has a real fan, it is Ms Dhoni: Habajan Singh
And Harbhajan Singh put his dedication together in full, saying, βIf a cricketer has a real fan, itβs Dhoni. The rest is paid.β In fact, the former cricketer was working on a recent chatter that the CSK icon was set for another IPL season for Star Sports along with Aakash Chopra.
He noted that if it was his team he could have made another decision about Dhoniβs future, but the 43-year-old should continue to play as long as possible before making a controversial comparison between the former Indian captainβs big fan following and other cricketers.
βAs long as you have the energy left, play. Bye. If it was my team, I would have made another decision. And thatβs easy. I always want him to play because the fans are his true fans.
The rest is just composed. Nowadays, half of social media has been run with paid promotions. But the fans of Dhoni and CSK are genuine and truly loyal. For others, the numbers you see here rule them out. Once we start to discuss that, the discussion goes in a different direction, so letβs talk a little more about these numbers. β
