The unwavering fan frenzy surrounding Mahendra Singh Dhoni knows no boundaries. Despite retiring from international cricket a few years ago, the former Indian cricket team captain continues to receive an outpouring of love and admiration. Dhoni, who remains an active participant in the Indian Premier League, is set to lead the Chennai Super Kings in the finals for an record tenth time.

Unfortunately, rain played spoilsport during the Indian Premier League 2023 finals, resulting in the match being postponed to the reserve day. Compounding the disappointment, there are looming chances of thunderstorms throughout the day. Amidst this chaotic situation, rumors have circulated that this might mark Dhoni's final appearance across all formats. Such speculation has only intensified the fans' adoration, as evidenced by the enormous turnout of supporters who braved the inclement weather to fill the stadium on Sunday.

Fans have been demonstrating their love for Dhoni not only by attending the stadium but also through various forms of art. One such remarkable tribute comes from the Telugu Experiments Team, which has created a massive mural of MS Dhoni using only thread.

The artists' painstaking efforts resulted in a colossal thread mural that required the use of a JCB machine to lift. This extraordinary creation has captivated the attention of cricket enthusiasts worldwide and has become a trending sensation across all social media platforms.

Chennai Super Kings in 2023

After a disappointing season in 2022, the Chennai Super Kings made a remarkable comeback, finishing second on the points table in the India Premier League 2023. They played against Gujarat Titans in the Qualifier 1 at M Chidambaram Stadium and registered a 15-run victory to book their slot in the finals.

On the other hand, MS Dhoni has aged like fine wine. In 8 innings, the wicketkeeper-batsman has scored 104 runs at a strike rate of 185.71. The 41-year-old has consistently showcased his prowess as a powerhouse, particularly with his exceptional hitting abilities, evident by his ten sixes in the death overs in 2023.
