Last week, IPL fans saw numerous players getting traded from one franchise to another.
It happened just ahead of the deadline for teams to release players from their squads. Among those traded had the big names of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ajinkya Rahane, who were both signed by the Delhi Capitals (DC) as they begin their push for a maiden IPL title.
In the middle of all this, one of the fans took to Twitter, tagging the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to ask if they’d trade their star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja to the Mumbai Indians (MI).
How about @imjadeja to @mipaltan ? All bases would be convered. Isn't? #JustSaying #koluthipoduvom
What you think @ChennaiIPL ?— Raghul (@imraghul24) November 16, 2019
Most queries of this nature would be ignored, but CSK took the time out to respond to the fan in style.

Better get Ethan Hunt in the squad, Mumba!
Both CSK and MI have a huge fan following, owing to their being the two most successful IPL franchises, combining for seven of the ten titles.
Ravindra Jadeja has been a trump card of the Chennai franchise over the years, and seeing him play in Mumbai’s colors would certainly appear wrong to the fans of both teams.
