The defending champions of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Chennai Super Kings (CSK), have started their training for the upcoming season in a full-fledged manner. The Anbu-Den (MA Chidambaram stadium) is glittering with the yellow army. Moreover, the presence of ‘Thala’ MS Dhoni has turned on the heat and the fans are eagerly waiting for March 23 when their favourite team will compete with the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the tournament opener.
CSK seems to be in no mood of compromising their legacy, especially, ‘Captain Cool’ Dhoni, who is hammering the bowlers brutally in the nets.
In CSK’s recent practice-session, the veteran wicketkeeper-batsman was seen smashing a humongous six as the ball went on to the stadium’s roof.

During this IPL season, the local fans have been given free access to witness the practice games as well and on Sunday, more than 12000 people marked their presence at the CSK home ground to see their heroes in action. And as expected, the moment MSD entered the ground, he received one of the loudest cheers from the Chennai crowd.
