The opening game of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 that is set to be played between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium is set to witness a huge a crowd. Such is the case that even celebrities are finding it hard to get the ticket for the high-octane clash. Given that the match will be having two greats of cricket — MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli — up against each other, the fans are leaving no stone unturned in order to make their way to the stadium on the match day.
Amid the scarcity of ticket for the game, an X user, having a parody account of Bollywood actor Janhvi Kapoor, thanked Ravichandran Ashwin and claimed that the player provided her “Box ticket”.
“Thank you Ashwin sir for the Box ticket for #CSKvRCB . Love to see Thala and King in Chepauk soon,” wrote the user on X.
“The least I can do for you,” replied Ashwin to the parody account. “Btw can you send me those G stand tickets in return for what I have done for you?” he added.
The least I can do for you.
