5 reasons why IPL 2018 got off to a dream start

#2 The return of CSK

No one can contest the fact that the verdict to ban CSK and RR was correct given the need to punish improprieties and ensure that the sport is clean at the end of the day. But every diehard CSK fan, and IPL fan, for that matter, was waiting for CSK’s return to IPL this year.

There were many firsts with Harbhajan Singh donning the yellow jersey and taking the field against his former home team. And euphoria and nostalgia for the crowd as former Indian captain – who is back at the helm of CSK – walked out for the toss.

To round it off, a great run chase and a CSK win to announce their comeback was thrilling to watch. The script could not have been written better.
