Former Indian cricket team captain MS Dhoni is one of the most popular cricketers in the world and enjoys a tremendous fan base. Although the two-time world cup winning skipper retired from international cricket last year, his fans continue to show their admiration for Dhoni from time to time.
Recently a die-hard fan of Dhoni walked from Haryana’s Hisar to CSK captain’s home in Ranchi to meet his idol.
As per reports, Ajay Gill, 18, walked for 16 days and covered a distance of over 1400km from his village Jalan Kheda in Hisar district of Haryana to Ranchi to meet MSD. He hoped that the CSK skipper would spare some time for his fan.
However, much to his disappointment, MS Dhoni has already landed in the UAE to begin his preparations for the remainder of the IPL 2021 season.
At the first, the fan refused to return to his village without meeting his idol although he was notified that the CSK skipper would return only after three months. However, a local businessman along with his friends booked him a flight ticket to Delhi, asking the fan to come back when Dhoni is in town. The fan, who came by walk, agreed to go back and thanked them for their kind gesture.
Ajay Gill said he dreamed of becoming a cricketer but stopped playing cricket after Dhoni announced his retirement. The fan explained that he hopes to play cricket again with the blessings of Dhoni.
