IPL: MS Dhoni and Sakshi sleep on floor at Chennai airport

CSK skipper MS Dhoni and Co didn’t have enough time to celebrate their win over KKR on Tuesday as they beat the opposition by 7 wickets at home venue to go to the top of the points table with 10 points (6 played – 5 wins, 1 loss).

The defending champions had no other option but to take an early morning flight on Wednesday to Jaipur where they will play Rajasthan Royals in their 7th Indian Premier League (IPL) 2019 match on Thursday.

It seems that captain MS Dhoni struggled to get some good sleep due to CSK’s early morning flight to Jaipur from Chennai. But Dhoni is loves to take a nap.





Case in point, poor over rates during yesterday’s match against KKR hasn’t helped either of the teams. Despite CSK acing the low-scoring 109-run target in 17.2 overs, the match concluded only after the scheduled time.

MS Dhoni took to Instagram to post a picture of himself and his wife Sakshi taking a nap at the Chennai airport while waiting for their next flight. The power couple can be seen using a backpack as a pillow.

“After getting used to IPL timing this is what happens if u have a morning flight,” Dhoni wrote as a caption.

MS Dhoni also expressed his frustration on playing on these tracks. “I don’t think we want to be playing on these tracks. It becomes too low scoring. It becomes slightly difficult for our batsmen as well. It is slightly more difficult batting first but once the dew comes in, it gets better,” he said at the post-match presentation.
