Due to the worldwide lockdown, the last couple of months have been difficult. The COVID-19 threat has created a situation, where people are not allowed to step out of their homes. And precisely, all the sporting events including the IPL have been either postponed or cancelled.

Sportspersons across the globe have no option other than staying at home. During this time, the Instagram live session has been really useful for the fans to get to know how their favourite stars are spending their quarantine time. Many stars have engaged in friendly chats with their fellow cricketers. However, one man who has stayed away from all of this is MS Dhoni. However, his wife has always been very active on social media.

Yuzvendra Chahal delighted to get a glimpse of MS Dhoni

On Tuesday, Sakshi Dhoni went live on Instagram. And during the same, the former India skipper was spotted playing with their daughter, Ziva. Yuzvendra Chahal, as usual, was active at the same time and soon after watching MS Dhoni, he came up with a comment. “Thaaaaaaaallllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,” his comment read with more than a few heart emoticons.

The Jharkhand player is called ‘Thala’ by his fans in Chennai. The term Thalla means leader in Tamil. As he is the captain of the Chennai Super Kings, fans call the 38-year-old affectionately as ‘Thalla’. The fans also refer to Suresh Raina as ‘Chinna Thalla’ which basically means the deputy of the leader.

A few days back, during an interview via the Instagram live session, Chahal was asked what will he do when the lockdown ends. To this, the leggie replied that he will, first of all, take a flight to Ranchi and visit Dhoni. He also said that the wicketkeeper-batsman doesn’t do live sessions on Instagram with anyone. Chahal revealed his plans on how he will get the ex-captain to attend an Instagram live session.

Both the players have a really good bond between them. In fact, the Haryana leggie has always been praising MS Dhoni. There have been several occasions on the field when the veteran had helped the spinner to plot the opposition batsman’s dismissal.
