I am a Thala’s fan
I will always be a Thala’s fan.
No matter what anyone thinks or does. It will not make a one percent difference.
So please stop spending money on paid pr and donate that to charity. Lot of underprivileged people can benefit.
Ambati Rayudu said,
“They have invested a lot on youth in the last few years. What have they got from it? It has been 17 years since they won the IPL and they always show it like that. As if it is their strength. It seems as if they are doing some big charity for the game, but it is not so. You have come here to compete.”

“You have come here to win the IPL and teams have adopted many right methods to win the IPL. Yet they do not follow any of them. And then they want people to inspire them as a good team. Because they give a platform to the youth around the world.”
Questions are being raised on Rayudu’s commentary
Let us tell you that this is not the first time that Ambati Rayudu has come into the discussion for his controversial statement. Ambati has also been surrounded by controversies regarding his commentary during the IPL. Actually, Ambati’s commentary has come under scrutiny due to his inclination towards current Chennai Super Kings captain and player MS Dhoni. At the start of season 18, a tweet by Ambati in support of Dhoni went viral, for which fans criticized the former player fiercely.
