Eden Gardens turned yellow with CSK fans turning out in huge numbers to see MS Dhoni | TwitterMany think that India's legendary cricketer MS Dhoni is probably playing his last Indian Premier League tournament for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the ongoing IPL 2023 and wherever he is visiting for the matches, he is getting deafening reception.

Dhoni, 41, is loved by all and this was visible when CSK traveled to Kolkata’s Eden Gardens to face off against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on April 23, 2023. Right from when he stepped off the team bus and entered the ground for warmups, crowd was chanting his name non-stop.

The Eden Gardens, despite being the home ground of the KKR franchise, was colored yellow by CSK fans and it was difficult to spot a purple and gold outfit in the seas of yellow.

Even though he came out to bat when only balls were left in the CSK innings, the reception he got was proof that no matter where he goes, MS Dhoni will be loved and fans are cherishing his presence everywhere in the IPL 2023.
