Chennai Super Kings’ Rachin Ravindra Lauds ‘Amazing’ Fans After Commanding Victory
Chennai Super Kings’ all-rounder Rachin Ravindra has expressed his admiration for the team’s passionate supporters, describing them as “amazing” following their 63-run victory over Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League 2024.
In a video shared on CSK’s official social media handle, Ravindra praised the fans’ unwavering enthusiasm during Tuesday’s match at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. The Kiwi all-rounder expressed his gratitude for the raucous support, acknowledging the special feeling of hearing the home crowd chant his name.
“I am not sure I am quite a favorite just yet, but, yeah, I mean, the Chennai fans are amazing,” Ravindra remarked in the video. “And I guess it’s always a great, special feeling when you have got fans sharing your name and I mean, I am very grateful for that to happen and it just shows the love and support the CSK fans have for the players. So very, very thankful and hope it keeps on coming,” he added.
CSK shared the video with the caption, “Rachin nation! Here’s some Yellove back.”
In the match, CSK, batting first after being put into bat by GT, posted a formidable total of 206/6 in 20 overs, propelled by fiery innings from Ravindra (46 off 20 balls), skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad (46 off 36 balls), and Shivam Dube (51 off 23 balls).
In pursuit of the target, GT faltered as they lost wickets at regular intervals, ultimately managing to reach only 143/8 in their allotted 20 overs and fell short by 63 runs.
Ravindra’s praise for the CSK fans highlights the special bond between the team and its supporters. The yellow brigade is known for its passionate and loyal fan base, which has consistently cheered the team on through both victories and setbacks.
The victory over GT was a significant one for CSK, as it marked their first win of the 2024 IPL season. The team will be hoping to build on this momentum and continue to delight their fans with more impressive performances in the matches to come.
