MS Dhoni talks about the Kolkata crowd after CSK win their game vs KKR at the Eden Gardens
CSK has won five of their last seven games. They presently have the best record in the league. Even though Roy played well for KKR in the pursuit, the game ultimately went to CSK after Theekshana got him and Pathirana had Russell hole out.
In the post-match presentation, MS Dhoni thanked the Kolkata crowd. He said: “I will just say thanks for the support, they came in big numbers. Most of these guys will come in a KKR jersey next time. They are trying to give me a farewell, so thanks a lot to the crowd.”
