‌ During the IPL 2024 match between CSK and GT at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, a fan who invaded the pitch recalled a conversation with MS Dhoni.

Security personnel promptly responded, yet the fan asserted that Dhoni requested they escort him safely off the field. 

‌”When I saw him, I tried to surrender. I raised my hand in delight and chased him. Mahi bhai said ‘I am trying to have fun here’,” the fan said while speaking with Focussed Indian.

“I went mad. I touched his feet. He is a legend, I had tears in my eyes. He asked me why I was breathing heavily. I had jumped the fence, ran onto the pitch and I was breathing heavily. I told him about a problem with my nose. He said: ‘I will take care of your surgery. Don’t worry. I will not let anything happen to you’.” the fan added.

Throughout the season Dhoni received immense applause 

Throughout IPL 2024, MS Dhoni was hailed nationwide. Having postponed retirement following the IPL 2023 victory, Dhoni dubbed the 2024 season a return gift to fans. Despite grappling with a muscle injury, Dhoni ensured his presence in all Super Kings matches. CSK garnered tremendous support across all eight venues, with fans flocking in droves to rally behind the former World Cup-winning captain. 

In Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium, the stands overflowed as CSK faithfuls passionately cheered for Dhoni. However, Dhoni couldn’t replicate his signature finishes in CSK’s last league match in Bengaluru during IPL 2024. Requiring 17 runs off the final over, Dhoni struck a six but was eventually dismissed by Yash Dayal, leading to RCB’s thrilling victory and advancement to the playoffs. Although MS Dhoni remained non-committal about IPL 2024 being his last season, former cricketers like Suresh Raina and Robin Uthappa speculated that Dhoni might consider another season, especially after CSK’s recent setbacks.
