MS Dhoni and his Chennai Super Kings teammates are now in Mumbai ahead of their next Indian Premier League 2024 encounter against the Mumbai Indians. On Sunday, April 14, the highly anticipated match is scheduled to take place at the renowned Wankhede Stadium.
At the Wankhede Stadium, MS Dhoni enjoyed a unique reunion with the cherished World Cup trophy, adding a nostalgic touch to the build-up. The former captain of India led the Indian cricket team to their second ODI World Cup victory in 2011 at this exact location. With the win, India won the World Cup for the first time in ODIs since 1983.
Reflecting on the cherished moment, the Indian cricket team’s official Instagram page shared a heartwarming snapshot of MS Dhoni reconnecting with the World Cup, aptly captioned: “MS Dhoni 🤝 World Cup Trophy. Made for each other❤️”
