It was the fourth IPL title for CSK under the captaincy of legendary MS Dhoni, who has been leading the franchise since the inception of the T20 league in 2008.

Like always, Dhoni wasn’t over the moon after the triumph but his family was on cloud nine. Soon after the game ended, Dhoni’s wife Sakshi and daughter Ziva were seen giving him a hug by coming on the ground.

The adorable moment was caught on camera and the video is now doing the rounds on social media.
