WATCH: This CSK Fan Breached All Security Measures Just To Touch MS Dhoni’s Feet

Every cricketing fan who was born in the 90’s knows the name of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. He came onto the pitch with his flowing mane of hair and won everybody’s hearts with his bold charisma. And even after all these years, people still chant his name when he steps into the ground. However, while only a select few get the chance to meet their idols, one Dhoni fan created his opportunity to get up close with his hero.

In a video posted by a spectator of the CSK and RR match, a fan can be seen rushing into the grounds when Dhoni was walking up to the crease.

Reportedly, the incident took place during yesterday’s IPL match between Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals. Suresh Raina had just been dismissed and Dhoni was walking in to take his place. But before he could reach the pitch, one ardent fan breached all security measures to touch his feet.

While fans who were watching the match at home might’ve missed this moment due to the commercial breaks, those in the stadium were lucky enough to witness it and cheered the fan on. Additionally, it was heartening to see Dhoni address him very calmly and even let his fan walk beside him for a while, before he happily headed back to the stands. That’s why he’s called Captain Cool.

Here’s the video:
