Hyderabad: With the Tata Indian Premiere League set to begin on Friday, fans are eagerly waiting for the opening game to kick off between defending champions Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
A day ahead of the first match, a photo with all the captains, and a vice-captain posing with the trophy was posted on official X handle of the Indian Premiere League. While Jitesh Sharma represented the Punjab Kings as vice-captain in the absence of captain Shikhar Dhawan, a massive surprise came in the form of Mahendra Singh Dhoni missing from the frame donning the yellow jersey.
Who represented the CSK as captain for the photograph? Ruturaj Gaikwad!
In the post, the IPL’s official handle said “Presenting 9 captains with PBKS being represented by vice-captain Jitesh Sharma. (sic)” indicating that the Chennai-based team will be led by Ruturaj Gaikwad and not Mahendra Singh Dhoni who has led the team to 5 IPL title victories and two Champions League T20 titles.
