Apart from displaying his supreme leadership prowess, MS Dhoni has been instrumental with the bat in the 16th edition of IPL. Plagued by a knee injury, Dhoni has been coming down to bat at number 8. But fitness issues could not deter him from pulling off some memorable cameos. After playing 12 matches, the former India skipper is enjoying a sensational strike rate of 196. In April, the 41-year-old became the first captain to lead an IPL franchise in 200 matches. 

With 15 points from 13 games, Chennai Super Kings are placed in second position in the standings. A win against a depleted Delhi Capitals will be enough for the four-time IPL winners to cement their spot in the playoffs.
