The loss notwithstanding, the mood was buoyant at Chepauk, as fans soaked in the moment while Dhoni led the team in a lap of honour.
As CSK players walked around their home stadium, Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar chased down the pack of players and asked CSK star Mahendra Singh Dhoni for his autograph. The former India captain, in fact, asked Dhoni to autograph his shirt, a touching tribute from one legend of the game to the other.
There has been a lot of speculation about whether Dhoni is playing in his last IPL. While he himself has not confirmed it, Chennai fans have spent the whole season showering the wicketkeeper-batter with unmatched adulation.

Dhoni was also seen hitting some balls into the crowd and tossing a few jerseys the fans. Even the local policemen at the venue were caught in the moment as some of them were seen shaking hands with Dhoni before getting his autograph.
“Mahi is different. He is a different captain. There hasn’t been a captain like him and there will never be one like him in the future,” Gavaskar had gushed about Dhoni earlier this season.
