The Chennai Super Kings vs Gujarat Titans final couldn’t be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday, with the rain mayhem pushing the match into the Reserve Day. Thousands of fans, who had arrived at the venue to watch their teams in action, had to return home without watching a single delivery being bowled. Later in the night, some videos and pictures emerged on social media platforms where several CSK fans could be spotted sleeping on the floor at a nearby railway station.
Though the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) allowed the fans to use the same tickets on the Reserve Day, a number of fans decided to stay in Motera than return home as they had to come back for the final the next day.
Multiple fans wearing the CSK jersey could be spotted at the railway station, probably looking to get a glimpse of the ‘Thala’ MS Dhoni before he decides to hang his boots.
This is the first time in IPL history that a summit clash had to be moved to a reserve day. The postponement of the match was a shocker for many excited fans who were in the stadium as well as those who were waiting for the summit clash in their homes. Around 11 PM IPL made the official announcement and ended many speculations.
