Delhi Daredevils are hosting the Chennai Super Kings in the 52nd match of IPL 2018 at the Feroz Shah Kotla tonight.
During the toss, an incident occurred that led CSK skipper MS Dhoni burst into laughter. DD skipper Shreyas Iyer flipped the coin in the air but amusingly the coin flew off his hand and travelled quite a distance before eventually dropping down.
Besides Dhoni, commentator Simon Doull was also amused to see the turn of events.
Here’s the video:

Chennai Super Kings won the toss and Dhoni without any hesitation invited the hosts to bat first. Placed at the second spot on the points table, CSK made one change in their team as Lungi Ngidi came in place of David Willey.
“We'll bowl first. It's a difficult ground to contain. It's not very big. There are chances of the wicket deteriorating. That's a chance we have to take. It's important to learn from each game. Every game gives you an opportunity to improve. We don't want to miss the key players when it comes to the knockouts. Lungi comes in for David Willey,” Dhoni said after winning the toss.
