Mahendra Singh Dhoni checks out as hotel denies home-cooked biryani

As reported by a daily, Dhoni was angered by Hotel Grand Kakatiya, which has tough stringent policies, for denying him  to have the biryani inside the hotel. The entire CSK team, alongwith the support staff and team officials, was shifted to Taj Krishna, a rival chain of Kakatiya.

Tournament officials said that 180 rooms were booked for CLT20 at Grand Kakatiya and the sudden change caught security off guard at Taj.

The report suggested that the hotel allowed players to have biryani in their rooms but Dhoni was adamant on using the hotel boardroom to which the hotel said no.

BCCI and CSK officials confirmed the change in the hotels but were not decisive if biryani was its real cause, the report said.

CSK is scheduled to play Dolphis next in Banglore to where they flew for on Thursday.
