The 12th edition of Indian Premier League has been going pretty well for the defending champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK). They have won seven of their eight games and placed at the top with 14 points. However, with CSK’s win, the other thing which is pretty common is the captain MS Dhoni’s little daughter Ziva Dhoni in the stadium. She is seen almost in every ground with her mother. On Sunday, after Chennai beat Kolkata by five wickets at Eden Gardens, she was seen at the ground with MS Dhoni. Later, she was spending time with Imran Tahir, Bravo and later was seen kissing Suresh Raina; who has anchored Chennai’s run-chase and took the team to a comfortable win along with Ravindra Jadeja.

Here is the video:

Earlier in the game with Kolkata, Imran Tahir dismantled Kolkata’s batting order by taking a 4-wicket haul. However, Kolkata opener Chris Lynn played a quickfire knock of 82 off 51 but another opener Sunil Narine failed to score big. Even, in-form Andre Russell got dismissed for mere 10 runs. The middle-orders were unable to capitalize on the start which Lynn provided earlier and managed only 161 runs after 20 overs.

However, chasing the target, Chennai also lost their opener Shane Watson and in-form Faf du Plessis within the powerplay. Even, Ambati Rayudu, Kedar Jadhav and captain MS Dhoni also failed to impress with the bat. But Suresh Raina stood strong at the crease, scored a 42-ball 58* and Ravindra Jadeja played a blitzy 17-ball 31; which helped them to get past the line with two balls to spare.

After the convincing win, everyone in the CSK dug-out was happy and then came Ziva Dhoni in the ground. Twitterati started reacting with her sweet gesture.

Here is how they reacted:
