After restricting Mumbai Indians to just 155 runs in 20 overs, Chennai Super Kings successfully chased down the target in 19.1 overs. Rachin Ravindra and Ruturaj Gaikwad’s brilliant innings played a key role in securing the victory for Chennai.

Following this remarkable win, a video went viral on social media, leading fans to accuse Chennai Super Kings of ball tampering and match-fixing.

The video clearly shows Chennai Super Kings’ fast bowler Khalil Ahmed cleaning the ball during a conversation, but without using a towel. Fans have accused him of rubbing a prohibited substance on the ball.

The second part of the video shows a scene where Chennai Super Kings’ former captain MS Dhoni is seen having a conversation with the on-field umpire.

Dhoni is seen speaking to the umpire, who responds with a thumbs-up gesture.

Although the purpose of the conversation was unclear, fans found it suspicious and began speculating that Dhoni and the umpire might be involved in some wrongful act.
