IPL 2021: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have lifted their fourth Indian Premier League trophy under the veteran captainship of MS Dhoni. Known as the Daddy team, CSK compose majorly of the senior players including three big names of South Africa; Lungi Ngidi, Faf Du Plessis, and Imran Tahir.
Cricket South Africa (CSK), posting a congratulatory message on their Instagram, mentioned their medium-fast bowler, Ngidi, but ignored Faf Du Plessis and Tahir who are part of the same team.
The senior players, being ignored from their board’s official team handle, have been getting attention as Dale Steyn came in defense. The bowler wrote that Tahir and Du Plessis have served the nation over the years but yet are ignored by CSA.
Not only Steyn but the devotees talk about the visible hypocrisy. Du Plessis himself commented ‘Really’ querying the reason for this ignorance.
CSA congratulates Lungi Ngidi but not Faf Du Plessis, Imran Tahir on winning IPL final:
