Out-of-favor Pakistan wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal named his favorite Indian Premier League (IPL) team when asked by a fan on Twitter. It was during a ‘Questions & Answers’ session on his Twitter account when he answered different questions of fans.

Akmal didn't ignore the Indian fan who wanted to know the IPL side he admires the most. Responding to the fan, Kamran said he likes Chennai Super Kings the most.

Chennai is the second most successful IPL franchise. The MS Dhoni-led side has won the tournament three times, only one less than Mumbai Indians. Although, they are the only franchise to qualify for playoffs of all the season they have appeared in.
