In #Aajkataazabakar, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) released a heart-warming video showcasing their love for the ‘#YellovArmy’. In the video which gives a glimpse of the CSK dressing room, the team bus and the team hotel, the three-time champions displayed how they are gearing up for the 13th Edition of the Vivo IPL.
In the dressing room, CSK has created miniature jerseys of all their players. Besides having their own personalised team bus to transport the players from the team hotel to the stadium, CSK have ensured that the name tags of their players too have been attached to each seat. For instance, captain and leader MS Dhoni’s tag ‘Thala’ – a nickname that the CSK faithful have given Captain Cool – along with ‘Chinna Thala’ Suresh Raina’s tag was seen in the team bus.

At the team hotel, the CSK think tank have created a dedicated kid zone for the children of the CSK players – Super Cub-G Squad – which has pictures of ‘Thala’ Dhoni’s daughter Ziva, ‘Chinna Thala’ Raina’s daughter Gracia Raina – adorned on the walls of the hotel. All of this and more is part of the special show “The Return of the Lion” aired on the Star Sports Network.
Chennai Super Kings took to Twitter: The Dressing Room, the Team Bus and the Team Hotel were all #yellove'd up and here's a super duper glimpse! #WhistlePodu.
