While MS Dhoni guided reigning champions Chennai Super Kings to a 6 wicket win over Delhi Capitals on Tuesday, a video of his daughter Ziva cheering for her ‘Papa’ at the iconic Feroz Shah Kotla went viral on social media.
Ziva, who is a regular at most CSK matches with her mother Sakshi Dhoni, was filmed shouting from the stands, “Paaapaaaaa, come on papa!”. Her adorable video rooting for her father is melting hearts and winning love on the internet.

CSK secured a comfortable second win of the season despite a lot of balls being wasted by the batsmen at the back end of the innings.
Delhi lost their four wickets for seven runs in just 1.5 overs. From 118 for 2 after 15 overs, the last five overs yielded only 29 runs. DC’s sub-par total of 147 for six was easily chased by the visitors with two balls to spare.
