Humble MS Dhoni Sleeps On The Floor At Airport After Guiding CSK To Win Over KKR

MS Dhoni is arguably the most popular cricketer in this cricket-obsessed nation from the last one decade or so. His remarkable journey and unprecedented feats in the game helped him grow a massive fan following. Over the years, the following has only increased and the reason behind it is not only his cricketing exploits but also his humble nature.

MS Dhoni will go down as one of the greatest ever cricketers to have played for India. But the talisman from Ranchi has always made sure to keep his feet firmly grounded. Over the years, we have seen several incidents which have proved Dhoni’s humility and another such instance was witnessed on Wednesday.

MS Dhoni & Co. were on their way to Jaipur for their next IPL clash against Rajasthan Royals. On Tuesday, the defending champions thrashed Kolkata Knight Riders by 7 wickets to move to the top of the points table. Super Kings have now won 5 of their opening six games. It was a clinical performance from the three-time champions at their home which is nothing less than a fortress for them.

Almost everything fell in place for them after MS Dhoni won the toss and decided to field first. On the slow track of Chepauk, the high-flying Knight Riders looked clueless and lost wickets at regular intervals.

They eventually finished their innings on 108 for 9 thanks to an unbeaten fifty from the in-form Andre Russell.

Chennai Super Kings then chased down the total without breaking much sweat. The hosts crossed the line in the 18th over after losing just three wickets. And just hours after the completion of the game, MS Dhoni & Co. had to leave for the airport.

Unsurprisingly, the players were tired. But while all the players decided to just sit in the airport and wait for the flight, Dhoni made the most of the time and lay flat on the ground to take a quick nap. His wife Sakshi was also seen taking a nap alongside him.

Dhoni himself took to Instagram to post a snap of that moment, writing:

“After getting used to IPL timing this is what happens if u have a morning flight”
