Same path, less people 🖤

From a boy with a dream to wearing yellow with pride 💛
CSK gave me more than just cricket it gave me belief, confidence, and a family I will always cherish.

From 2022 till the end of 2025, every moment in yellow shaped me as a cricketer and as a person. I always wanted to finish my last season with CSK on a special note, to give my best till the end and reach 50 wickets for this incredible franchise. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make that happen, but the dream and the effort were always from the heart.

I am forever grateful to Dhoni bhai for the guidance and trust, Kasi sir and the management for believing in me, my teammates for standing by me like brothers, and every loyal CSK fan who supported me through every high and low. Your love meant everything to me.

“சென்னை எப்போதும் என் இதயத்தில் ஒரு சிறப்பு இடம் பிடிக்கும் 💛”
(Chennai will always have a special place in my heart.)

Chennai will always feel like home, and yellow will always have a special place in my heart 💛
With respect, gratitude, and pride, I now turn the page and begin a new chapter with KKR 🖤💜

Thank you CSK. Thank you Chennai. Forever grateful.

💛
