After taking Chennai over the line, Dhoni did something that was extremely heartwarming. After the game, an elated Dhoni joined the customary post-match handshakes. While exchanging pleasantries with the KKR players, but just as he was walking back to the CSK dugout along with young Anshul Kamboj on his side - he stopped.

In fact, at the post-match presentation, Dhoni was brutally honest in assessing CSK's show in IPL 2025. He reckoned it was important as a team to remain practical after having managed to win merely three games.

‘Important is to be practical’
"It is only the third game we gave won. It is good to be on the winning side. Quite a few things have not gone our way. What is important is to be practical. Identify what has gone wrong. We have 25 players who can fill and I was focusing on that. We want answers for the next year, which batter can slot in where and which bowler can bowl where according to the conditions," Dhoni said at the post-match presentation.
