Chennai Super Kings (CSK) all-rounder Dwayne Bravo on Thursday (21st April) was seen touching the feet of Kieron Pollard ahead of the match against Mumbai Indians (MI).
The 33rd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 saw arch-rivals Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings clashing with each other at DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai.
While it was MS Dhoni’s last-ball thrilling finish that made many go bonkers, the game also witnessed various moments that defined the camaraderie between the players of both teams.
West Indian duo of Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo were involved in a couple of moments that made fans praise them for the adorable bond. A few hours ahead of the game, the CSK all-rounder was seen touching the feet of Pollard, who recently announced his retirement from international cricket.

If this was not enough, both Pollard and Bravo also shared a light moment during the game. It was during the 14th over of the first innings when the MI batter defended the last ball of the CSK’s all-rounder.
Bravo then in his follow-through grabbed the ball and threw it towards Pollard to send him back in the crease. After this moment, the crowd went berserk and the outgoing West Indian batter made them cheer even more when he kissed Bravo.

Chasing the target, CSK were under a lot of pressure as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals but MS Dhoni turned the clock back and finished the match in style to help his side win the match by 3 wickets. The keeper-batter smashed 17 runs in the last over off Jaydev Unadkat.
