The heartwarming moment captured the attention of fans as Star Sports shared the video on social media. In the clip, Meher expresses her gratitude and shares her aspiration to play for India one day. She promises to pass on the cherished gift to someone else after achieving her dream.
Despite CSK’s loss to Lucknow Super Giants, Dhoni’s performance remained noteworthy. Following his cameo in Mumbai, Dhoni’s bat continued to dazzle with a brisk knock of 28 not out off just nine balls against LSG. This, coupled with Ravindra Jadeja’s 57* off 40 balls, propelled CSK to a competitive total of 176 for 6 runs.
While the match ultimately ended in a victory for LSG, the touching interaction between Dhoni and young Meher left a lasting impression, showcasing the power of sports to inspire dreams and create unforgettable moments.
