For the third time in the Indian Premier League 2018 (IPL 2018), a fan touched MS Dhoni’s feet. Earlier, on May 03 during Chennai Super Kings’ match against Kolkata Knight Riders made his way to the dugout and touched Dhoni’s feet. Similarly, on April 20, against Rajasthan Royals, a fan touched Dhoni’s feet while the CSK skipper was making his way to the middle. Coming back to the latest incident, after Dwayne Bravo hit the winning runs against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), a fan made his way to the middle and bowed down to Dhoni before touching his feet.

While incidents might not be serious in nature, but they do raise some objections about the security of the players. Meanwhile, CSK registered their seventh win of the tournament to regain the top spot on the IPL 2018 points table. CSK vs RCB Video Highlights
Batting first, RCB were restricted to a paltry total of 127 for nine. Parthiv Patel, who was playing his first match of the season, was top-scorer for RCB with 53 off 41 balls. The pitch was not an easy one to bat on and CSK spinners Ravindra Jadeja and Harbhajan Singh made good use of the conditions. The duo share five wickets between them. While Jadeja picked 3/18, Harbhajan returned with figures of 2/22.
CSK then chased down the total n 18 overs with six wickets in hand. Dhoni once again provided the finishing touch to CSK innings with 23-ball 31. He smashed three sixes and a four during his stay.
