Virat Kohli could be seen entering the CSK dressing room, seemingly in search of MS Dhoni who abruptly walked away without taking part in customary handshakes. Royal Challengers Bengaluru secured the final Playoff spot dramatically on Saturday night, defeating defending champions Chennai Super Kings by 27 runs in their must-win final IPL league match. This crucial victory, RCB’s sixth in a row, was anchored by a formidable total of 218 for five after being invited to bat first. Their bowlers then effectively restricted CSK to 191 for seven, marking RCB’s ninth appearance in the Playoffs over 17 seasons. Following the match, MS Dhoni, the legendary former CSK captain, who had been dismissed in the final over of the run-chase, led the side’s players out for the customary handshakes. However, with the RCB players immersed in jubilant celebrations over their play-off qualification, Dhoni paused for a few moments before turning back and urging captain Ruturaj Gaikwad to lead the handshakes instead. Dhoni then proceeded to shake hands with a few members of the RCB dugout before making his way into the dressing room. The video of Dhoni walking back sparked a flurry of conversations on social media; now, adding to the buzz, another video has emerged showing Virat Kohli, RCB’s star batter, approaching the CSK dressing room, seemingly in search of Dhoni.
