For Dhoni, it was more than just another tournament; it was a chance to bid farewell to the league that had been his home for over a decade. And as he prepared to take to the field for what could potentially be his last dance in the IPL, the people of Chennai stood firmly behind their captain, ready to cheer him on every step of the way.
