During Rising Pune Supergiant's match against Gujarat Lions, Dhoni was once again at his best when he ran-out Dinesh Karthik to give a big blow to the opponents.


The incident happened in the final over of Lions' innings when Karthik rushed for a bye to be at strike for the final ball of the innings. But he was well short as Dhoni's direct throw uprooted the stumps.


Watch the incident here:



Earlier in the match, Gujarat Lions skipper Suresh Raina committed a blunder as he went for a second run despite the ball being thrown at Dhoni's end. Dhoni collected the ball and removed the bails in a flash.


After putting 161 runs on board, Lions were stunned by a stupendous ton from Ben Stokes, who single-handedly won the match for his team with a brisk 63-ball 103.


Despite having some of the most renowned big-hitters in the squad, Lions have failed to live up to the expectations are currently languishing at sixth position in points table after just three wins from ten matches.
