MS Dhoni autographs Sunil Gavaskar’s shirt, signals at last IPL outing
A great cricketer like Sunil Gavaskar taking the autograph on his shirt from Dhoni just tells the greatness, said Md Kaif.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni has given enough hints that it will be his last season as a player in the Indian Premier League (IPL). In a worth-capturing photo-op moment the legendary cricketer MS Dhoni was seen putting an autograph on another legendary cricketer Sunil Gavaskar’s shirt.
A moment that shall remain etched in the memory of cricket fans all over the country till times to come. The packed Chepauk stadium went ballistic for Dhoni as the cricketer did a lap of the grounds.
Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Chennai Super Kings by 6 wickets and spoiled the CSK fans’ party in the last home game of the MS Dhoni-led side in the league stages. The loss also stalled CSK’s playoffs qualification chances as they’ll now have to win their final game against DC to book a berth for the knockout stages.
This was CSK’s final home ground match of IPL 2023 season. The real moment was when the batting legend Sunil Gavaskar ran up to MS Dhoni for an autograph on his shirt. Players like him come once in a century, not even once in a generation said Sunil Gavaskar after the fan perfect moment.
Speaking about the surreal moment of MSD signing an autograph on Gavaskar’s shirt, Kaif said, “We have never seen Sunny sir taking an autograph of any other cricketer. A great cricketer like Sunil Gavaskar taking the autograph on his shirt from Dhoni just tells the greatness of MS Dhoni.”
It was a moment to behold for all cricket fans and it even triggered the debate if MSD has hinted about his IPL future.
