MS Dhoni: Best Knocks Of CSK Legend In IPL History - IN PICS

The noise around the fans and cricket experts is that it could be MS Dhoni's last season with the Chennai Super Kings as a player.

Take a look at some of his best knocks in the IPL throughout the years playing for CSK.

Facing a target of 162 set by Royal Challengers Bangalore, CSK found themselves at 83/5. Enter MSD, who unleashed an aggressive onslaught on the Bangalore bowlers. His phenomenal 48-ball 84, featuring 24 runs off just five deliveries in the final over, marked his highest-ever IPL score. Despite his valiant effort, CSK narrowly missed the target by 1 run, with Dhoni remaining unbeaten in a game where he gave his all but ended on the losing side.

In a remarkable display against the then-Kings XI Punjab, Dhoni showcased his batting prowess despite a losing effort. Chasing 198, CSK was struggling at 56/3 when Dhoni entered in the 7th over. He then unleashed a relentless performance, scoring 79 off just 44 balls with six fours and five sixes.

In another memorable game at Chepauk against the Rajasthan Royals, CSK was asked to bat first. Dhoni surprised everyone by walking in at number 4 with the score at 22/2 before the powerplay ended. Dhoni led the charge, scoring an unbeaten 75 in 46 balls, including four fours and four sixes.

Chasing 206 for a win against RCB, CSK skipper MS Dhoni scored a blistering 70 runs, guiding his team to victory in the last over of the match. Dhoni has orchestrated many miraculous finishes throughout his decorated career, one of which occurred during an Indian Premier League (IPL) match in 2018.

Dhoni dazzled with an astonishing strike rate of 255, scoring an unbeaten 51 off just 20 balls. CSK eventually triumphed by 38 runs. This innings exemplifies why Dhoni is hailed as one of cricket’s most reliable batters.
