The official CSK Instagram handle posted an adorable video on the eve of Chennai Super Kings’ next game in the IPL 2023. The video shows MS Dhoni’s daughter Ziva playing football with members of the franchise at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. The eight-year-old was seen kicking the ball in a goal post made by two water bottles. CSK captain MS Dhoni is also seen in the video as he observes his daughter from a distance. 


Robin Uthappa’s son, Neale Uthappa can also be seen in the video practicing bowling and fielding in the video. Robin Uthappa can be seen throwing the ball to his young one in the video. Although Robin Uthappa has retired from the IPL with his last appearance in 2022, he is often seen supporting CSK. This heartwarming video has gone viral on the internet and gaining eyeballs from across for the father-daughter and father-son duo.


The Chennai Super Kings were trolled in 2018 after they picked a team consisting of players slightly older than the average age. They were called ‘Daddy’s army’ for having old players, but the team proved the trollers wrong after they won the title in 2018. The Chennai Super Kings are having a great season in the IPL after a terrible outing in 2022. They sit at the second position in the points table with three more games to go for them. They will next face the Delhi Capitals on Wednesday night at the MA Chidambaram stadium.
