Over 10,000 fans watch CSK's practice match!

Over 10,000 fans reportedly showed up to watch the practice game of Chennai Super Kings in Chepauk on Sunday. Reports say, the practice match began at 5 pm and the lower level of the C, D and E stands in the stadium were full during the course of the match. 

"Just a normal inter-squad centre wicket practice.... and 10,000 people rock up," said England batsman Sam Billings in a tweet.

Notably, Dhoni was absent in the practice session as he was in Delhi to accept the Padma Bhushan honour.
