Memoirs from a Fan's Diary

Event: MS Dhoni, The Untold Story releases in theatres


Had me wonder whether I was in a movie theatre or a cricket stadium. We all owe Neeraj Pandey and Sushant Singh Rajput a fair massive lot.


The only biopic, after Thalaivar’s I’ve always wanted to watch.


Once an MSDian, always an MSDian.

 

Date: 5th January, 2017

Event: Dhoni steps down from Captaincy


Test Match. Uncheck. Indian Cricket Team. Uncheck.


Wiki says, "Mahendra Singh Dhoni, an Indian cricketer who captained Indian team between 2007 to 2016". Nothing more can wreck my day. NOTHING MORE.



One reason. ONE REASON for me to watch Team India play under his captaincy has been demolished like FOREVER.


I’ve been drawn towards cricket since Dravid's era. MSD, took after him.


Now? Nah, bruh. I’d watch the ads instead.

 

Date: 5th April, 2017

Event: IPL 2017 begins


Is it IPL already?


Have never been so ignorant about cricket all these years.


Since CSK's demise from the league, no bruh, I’m okay with watching random shit on TV.


Also, no thank you, I’m not into IPL now.

Event: Dhoni kicks off TNPL 2.0 in style at Chepauk


Watching Mahi in the yellow jersey, starting off the match in style with his signature helicopter sixes. Watching Hayden in his lungi, sharing the pitch with MSD at the MAC stadium makes my heart weep.



Enga team CSK ke periya whistle adinga. Enga thala Dhoni ku periya whistle adinga.


Come back, the winning cup. Come back, the fair play award. Come home, CSK.


 

Date: 4th January, 2018

Event: CSK’s official announcement on the comeback


CSK IS BACK IN THE GAME BEEEETCHES!



Retaining MSD and Raina, reports CSK official.


No better way to start off the new year.


Also, cup-um engaldhu, fair play award-um engaldhu. Mudinja CSK va thaandi thodu da paakalam.


 

Date: 3rd April, 2018

Event: IPL 2018 kick starts with CSK’s comeback


Two best things that are about to happen in April. 1. I’m getting married. Yay. 2. CSK’s back in the game beeeetches.



Once a CSK-ian always a CSK-ian. Been two IPL years since I sat down and watched the league matches cuz when #csk isn’t on the field, nothing else matters. Now is the time to be alive!


Dai other team fanatics, konja nanja aatama da aaduneenga?


Get ready to give up on the IPL cup, CLT20 trophy, purple cap and the fair play award.


 

Date: 7th April, 2018

Event: Bravo braves a 68 off just 30 balls against MI


BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO!


My heart goes BRAVO! When Thala slipped and Chinna Thala left us with nothing but a petty score, vandhan paaru namma Thalapthy!


On the faces of Hardik and Nita Ambani. Suck on that MUM-BYYEEEEEEEE!


CSK is back in the game beeeeeetches! First League victory against the 2017 champions.


Now what are ya’ll gonna do about that?


 

Date: 11th April, 2018

Event: CSK’s nail-biting finish against KKR


What’s better than a royal victory on home grounds? Whatta come back after 2 long years, team?


Watson and Billings, what magic they stirred and what a signature finish by Thala?


God, this match got all of my nerves popping and heart beats rising.


Ey. Cup engalukku dhaan da.

Event: IPL 2018 – Qualifier 1 – CSK enters the Finals


Talk about adrenaline rushes and the like.


7th Final. A year that can never get better. Back after two years and still the roaring impulse within every player hasn’t gone down one bit.


Call it match fixing or whatever you losers cuz all your team could do was play at a mere pace while we’ve been through shit, knocked out teams, fair and square.


Too sad that CSK isn’t on home grounds this year but that’s okay. Lions will keep roaring no matter where!


CSKian for life dawwwwww! Cup-u gip-u ellam engaluku dhan dawwwwww!



 

Date: 27th May, 2018

Event: IPL 2018 – Final Match – CSK becomes the defending champions


COME BACK NA IPDI IRUKANUM DAAAAWWWWWWW!!!!


What a massive innings by Watson? Watching him smile, beaming with pride after his century, did I fall in love already? The signature finish by Thala MSD!


2018 can’t get better for the ceesskaayyyy fanatics, what say? Sealing the cup in Mumbai grounds and etching our names on it after 2 years is such sheer joy.


We’re the authentic defending champions da dai!
