Former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain MS Dhoni received a special memento in Jaipur during the team's third Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 clash against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati for the 18th edition of the tournament.
MS Dhoni becomes the second cricketer after Royal Challengers Bengaluru's legendary batter Virat Kohli to receive this honour from the IPL governing body BCCI. IPL took their 'X' formerly known as Twitter, to share a clip where Dhoni can be seen receiving the memento. Here is the video.
Coming back to match, Chennai skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad won the toss and opted to bowl against Rajasthan in their second clash of the tournament.
