Chennai Super Kings lifted their record equaling fifth IPL title, beating defending champions Gujarat Titans by five wickets via DLS method. While MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja stole the show with that hug as they ended the rumours of a possible rift, the bold words from MS Dhoni on giving another year to his fans was just a cherry on top.

 

However, amidst this an incident which caught the limelight a few hours later was CSK wicketkeeper0batter MS Dhoni denying pacer Deepak Chahar an autograph.  The Indian pacer went upto the skipper for an autograph in presence of BCCI Vice President Rajiv Shukla, but all things turned for Chahar as the skipper denied one.

The video is now doing rounds on social media soon after this incident. However after Chahar insisting Dhoni, the skipper finally signed the former’s jersey, only after pointing out his mistake. It is being reported that Dhoni denied for once after Chahar dropped catches in the IPL Final against GT.

 

It is to be noted that Chahar dropped GT wicketkeeper-batter Wriddhiman Saha inside the powerplay and later dropped Gill as the inning proceeded. Talking on Chahar’s performance as a whole in the two-month long tournament, the 30-year-old scalped 13 wickets in the ten inning, registering his best figures of 3/22.
