Five-time champions Chennai Super Kings are placed at the bottom of the table after losing all their first three matches. Another five-time IPL winner, Mumbai Indians, have also had a mixed start of the season so far. They won their opening match, but later lost two consecutive matches which raised some signs of worries. Teams like, SRH, LSG, KKR and GT are also playing their hearts out to find the rhythm in the beginning of the tournament. The fan has now become the face of positivity, proving that while players may be in fierce competition on the field, happiness remains an integral part of the sport and its people.
