Chennai Super Kings (CSK) emerged victorious once again in the Indian Premier League (IPL), clinching their fifth title in a nail-biting final. The rain-affected match left the team facing a challenging target of 171 runs but their star player Ravindra Jadeja rose to the occasion and handed CSK a stunning last-ball victory to win the match by five runs.
Jadeja’s heroics in the dying moments of the match earned him the title of Man of the Moment. With 10 runs needed off the last two balls, the left-arm all-rounder smashed Mohit Sharma for a six and a four, triggering celebrations in the stadium. The CSK dugout lit up with joy as MS Dhoni, known for his calm nature, could not control his emotions. He hugged Jadeja and even lifted him in a rare display of enthusiasm. Videos doing the rounds on social media showed tears of joy in Dhoni’s eyes, highlighting the importance of the win for the team.
Throughout the season, regardless of the venue, Dhoni received immense support from the fans. The finale was no exception as the crowd rallied behind the CSK skipper. Social media platforms were flooded with congratulatory messages. However, amid the celebrations, the Barmy Army, the England fan community, faced heavy criticism for their IPL winning post.
The post from the Barmy Army congratulated his countrymen Moeen Ali and Ben Stokes, who represented CSK in the tournament. Fans were quick to point out that Stokes had minimal impact in the season, making only two appearances and spending most of his time on the sidelines due to injury. Moeen, on the other hand, made significant contributions, playing 15 matches after missing the season opener due to visa issues. He scored 124 runs and took 11 wickets during the tournament.

The fans did not hold back in voicing their dissatisfaction with the selective acceptance of the Barmy Army, stressing on the contrasting performances from Stokes and Moeen. The post became the target of incessant trolling, as fans voiced their opinion on the matter.
As the celebrations continue for CSK and their fans, the online backlash faced by the Barmy Army serves as a reminder that fans can be forgiving and quick to spot perceived inconsistencies even in moments of victory.
