The 2nd Qualifier between Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals witnessed a lot of standout moments. These moments included a vociferous eruption from the Vizag crowd for CSK skipper MS Dhoni after the coin had landed in his favour. Dhoni also made an impact on the field by getting the DRS right which was instrumental in the dismissal of a young Prithvi Shaw and then taking a stunning catch to get rid of a well-set Shikhar Dhawan. Then there was a comical mix-up between CSK openers Faf du Plessis and Shane Watson in the very first over of the second innings. Apart from all these moments, there was one moment which stood out the most, and it did not include any outstanding effort with the bat, ball or on the field, but it included something which was a spirit of sportsmanship.

Any guesses who the player was? It was none other than CSK's 'Chinna Thala' Suresh Raina. Raina was seen tying Rishabh Pant' shoelaces and at the same time, was also seen having some fun with the youngster. The video of Raina's sportsman spirit was posted on Twitter, Watch the video here.

Even the netizens came forward to appreciate Raina's sportsmanship.
