Chennai Super Kings (CSK), the defending champions, have made a stupendous start in the on🍌going 12th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The franchise has now won three matches in a row and are place𓄧d at the top of the points table.
After getting the better of RCB and DC, the yellow army managed to beat the Rajasth🦩an Royals (RR) by eig🧸ht runs at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday. Thanks to captain MS Dhoni whose unbeaten knock of 75 runs propelled CSK to put up a total of 175/5 on the board.

The true success of lies in finding heroes every game and not being over depen💦dent on one or two. It was Dhoni with the Bat and Bravo with the Ball in 🔯the final over today. Bhajji and Watson were the stars in the first two games. Champions for a reason
