Lone LSG Fan's Celebration Amid A Sea Of Yellow At CSK's Home Turf Wins Hearts

Cricket is not just a game in India, it is an emotion. And, the Indian Premier League is the icing on the cake for all cricket enthusiasts. Don’t you agree? Well, you will after watching the video from last night’s IPL face-off between Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Giants. The clip opens to a sea of yellow cheering for the home team at Chepauk. In the middle of this, we can also spot a few Lucknow Super Giants fans showing their support for the KL Rahul-led side.

In a video, one Lucknow Super Giants supporter can be seen joyfully cheering for his side. Amidst a sea of yellow, the only LSG fan spotted in the video showcased his passion and love for his favourite franchise. “Best fan video of the season,” read the caption of the video shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter).

The supporter, quite rightfully, was lauded by many as he kept on supporting his side despite being surrounded by the Chennai Super Kings’ home fans. Praising the fan’s love for the franchise, one social media user wrote, “Lions are Silent. Giant is jumping with joy.”

“Happy for brother,” commented another person.

“Cold revenge,” wrote a social media user.
