Chennai Super Kings regrets his tweet which was without the knowledge of the Management and in bad taste.
20 Indian Army personnel including a colonel were martyred in a clash with Chinese troops in Ladakh’s Galwan Valley on Monday, the biggest military confrontation in over five decades that has significantly escalated the already volatile border standoff in the region.
The IPL franchise said they were unaware of the tweet by Dr Madhu, while stressing it was in bad taste.
Dr. Madhu had been the team doctor for the franchise since the beginning of the T20 league, in 2008.
