IPL 2020: MS Dhoni's 'class' act, gives up his business class seat for Chennai Super Kings director - WATCH

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni once again won millions of hearts with yet another heartwarming gesture. The former Team India captain and all-rounder Suresh Raina, who both announced their retirement from international cricket recently, are among the CSK squad which left for the UAE on Friday for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020. On the flight, Dhoni gave up his business class seat to franchise director K George John and sat in economy class while traveling to Dubai.

John was not too comfortable with his economy class seats due to having long legs. When Dhoni came to know about this, he gave up his seat to him, once again showcasing his big-hearted nature.

CSK's franchise director then took to social media to express his thoughts on Mahi and wrote: "When a man who’s seen it all, done it all in Cricket tells you, “Your legs are too long, sit in my seat (Business Class), I’ll sit in Economy.” The skipper never fails to amaze me. @msdhoni."

This is not the first time Dhoni has done this. In the past as well, the veteran wicketkeeper-batsman gave up his business class seats to others to help them.

Dhoni was slated to return to the cricket field on March 29 during the IPL's opening match between CSK and Mumbai Indians. However, the tournament will now be played in the UAE from September 19 to November 10.

With the 13th edition of the IPL just less than a month away, teams are gearing up to prepare for the tournament which will be held in the UAE in a bio-secure environment.

Other teams in Delhi Capitals, Rajasthan Royals, Kings XI Punjab, Mumbai Indians, etc have already made their trip over to UAE this week as they all prepare for IPL 2020.
