Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty and Sakshi Dhoni make a very pretty picture together.

While Shilpa is the owner of the Rajasthan Royals, Sakshi - for the few who don't know! - is married to Chennai Super Kings skipper MSD.

And while the two teams were battling each other on the field, these two ladies let competition remain in the playing arena and enjoyed their time at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium in Jaipur. (BCCI image)

Shilpa, it appears, took the lead in opening up light conversation as Sakshi is seen enjoying the company. (BCCI image)

In the end though, there can only be one winner on the cricket field.

From the laugh and the sporting smile, it is quite clear whose team emerged victorious. (BCCI image)

Whenever Chennai Super Kings play and Dhoni takes to the field, one fan keeps all her fingers crossed. Yes, Sakshi Dhoni (right) is an ardent admirer of the side and the skipper- her husband MS. Here she catches the team in action against Pune Warriors.

Sure, there were some tense moments in the match like in every T20 clash. (BCCI image)

In the end though, the celebration seen here is more than enough to describe how Chennai and MS played their match.

Possibly, this is the first time Sakshi Dhoni was seen wearing a pair of glasses. Although it isn't clear if they were for better vision or to protect her eyes from the stadium lights, the glasses did seem to suit her style.
