Former Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni made a cameo in the last over of the team’s innings in game against Mumbai Indians. The arch-rivals and joint-most winners of the Indian Premier League locked horns in a high-octane game at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. After receiving the invitation to bat first, the Yellow Army started off on a decent note which was later powered by skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad ’s 69-off-40 deliveries.
CSK’s ex-captain joined Shivam Dube on the crease after Daryl Mitchell and played a fiery knock of 20 runs off four deliveries. Dhoni hit three back-to-back sixes off MI skipper Hardik Pandya’s deliveries and guided the side’s score beyond the 200-run mark alongside Shivam Dube. Needless to say, seeing their favourite ‘Thala’ in his evergreen form sent fans into a frenzy. This is how cricket lovers nationwide reacted to Dhoni’s last-over knock-off 20* off four deliveries.
CSK posted a total of 206 runs with the loss of four wickets.
