It was a great start of the IPL 2024, where CSK DEFEATED RCB BY 6 WICKETS....!!!

For the new captain of Chennai Super Kings, Ruturaj Gaikwad what a start it was for him in Yellow Army. 💛

Mustafizur Rahman, who was among four debutants for CSK, took out four of Royal Challengers Bengaluru's top five in the space of ten balls to set up an eighth successive defeat for RCB in Chennai.

Rachin Ravindra, who was playing his first IPL game, also played his part in the victory, with 37 off 15 balls at a strike rate of 246.66 on a pitch that slowed down later in the night.

In his first game as CSK captain, Ruturaj Gaikwad started with a first-ball four, but RCB's Impact Player Yash Dayal cut his innings short on 15 in CSK's chase of 174.

The spotlight in the game was on MS Dhoni, who relinquished the CSK captaincy on match eve, handing over the reins of the defending champions to Ruturaj Gaikwad. There was also added focus on Virat Kohli, who is making a bid to play for India at the T20 World Cup. Kohli could only manage a 20-ball 21.

The Kohli and Dhoni moment was also beautiful 😍 the both showcase so much love and respect to each other.
