Chennai taught me a lot. Tamil Nadu taught me a lot.
00:04
When it came to how to conduct myself, how to appreciate the game.
00:11
Digardhoni, you may be from the state of Jharkhand, but we the people of Tamil Nadu love you.
00:17
I'm more like a wanderer. My parents came from UP.
00:32
It was initially UP, then it became Uttarakhand. I was born in Ranchi, which was Bihar.
00:37
Then later on became Jharkhand. Got my job at the age of 18 with railways in West Bengal, Kharagpur.
00:44
And then I came to Chennai.
00:47
It's the fan following that CSK has got.
01:14
But I won't like to limit the fan following only to Tamil Nadu. I think it goes much beyond that.
01:20
It goes beyond the state of Tamil Nadu and it goes beyond the border of India.
01:44
Whether we are playing at Chepauk or we go to Bangalore, we go to Mumbai, we go to Delhi.
02:03
Or when we have played at Durban, Joburg or Dubai, we have got the most support.
02:10
I would like to thank the fans for supporting us the way they have done.
02:16
Even through the lean patch, two years we were missing.
02:19
And those two years were the most talked about years when it came to CSK in the social media.
02:25
That's what fans are there for. When we are not doing well, when we are not there, they backed us.
02:31
I have always planned my cricket. My last game that I played was in Ranchi.
02:37
The ODI version, the last home game was at my hometown in Ranchi.
02:43
So hopefully my last T20, it will be in Chennai.
02:48
Whether it's next year or in five years' time, we don't really know.
