Kings XI Punjab team tweets in Tamil to praise Dhoni, CSK and Tamil fans can't keep calm!
Home > News Shots > Sports newsThe second warm-up match for India in ICC World Cup 2019 has brought to us a lot of things including how India is preparing and some of the players' banters.
In the match against Bangladesh, India started off not so good with 102 for 4 in 22 overs. But then KL Rahul and MS Dhoni partnership gave the game a new twist. Rejoicing on the redemption, fans were all praises on social media.
CSK, who are getting good with their puns, the recent one being "Knee" pun on Watson's selfless game in the IPL Finals, tweeted "Khel Rahul! Lovely reassuring ton going into the grandest of tournaments! #WhistlePodu #Yellove #CWC19 #INDvBAN 🦁💛 PC: @BCCI" making a pun using the word "Khel" meaning "game" in Hindi substituting "KL."
