During the Sunrisers Hyderabad versus Chennai Super Kings match on April 5 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, the spotlight shifted to Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s family. Dhoni’s wife, Sakshi Singh Rawat, along with their daughter Ziva, graced the stands, their presence capturing attention on social media with viral images of them cheering enthusiastically.
Seated beside Sakshi was Ruturaj Gaikwad’s wife, Utkarsha Pawar, adding to the familial atmosphere amidst the IPL frenzy. Earlier this season, Dhoni, despite stepping down as CSK captain, showcased his vintage form with a quickfire 37 off just 16 balls against Delhi Capitals.
While Dhoni’s on-field performance couldn’t secure victory for CSK, Sunrisers Hyderabad’s resurgence in the 2024 IPL was evident as they clinched a comfortable six-wicket win over Chennai Super Kings. Abhishek Sharma’s explosive start with 37 off 12 balls, coupled with Aiden Markram’s half-century and Travis Head’s crucial contribution, sealed the victory for SRH, reinstating their winning momentum in the tournament.
