At the slow looking Chepauk pitch, MS Dhoni finished the innings for his team during the IPL 2019 game between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR). His unbeaten knock of 75 runs propelled CSK to 175/5 after 20 overs.

After deciding to bat first, the hosts lost their openers Amabtai Rayudu and Shane Watson very early. Even Kedar Jadhav fell soon as the CSK were in trouble at one stage at 27/3 in the fifth over. Then walked in Dhoni to save the sinking ship at number five and the veteran proved it again. Along with Suresh Raina, he resurrected the innings to the large extent. The veteran duo added 61 runs for the fourth wicket and just when the things were looking great for the team.

After Raina’s wicket though Dwayne Bravo came and played a 27-run cameo much to the give some reason for his fans to cheer. As the innings went into the 19th over, Mahi went berserk and he was now set to launch his special massacre on the bowler.

Unfortunately for Unadkat, he came in the firing line in the last over. Dhoni brought all his experience together to smash the left-arm bowler for three sixes off the last four balls. The CSK skipper dispatched all kind of variations from the southpaw into the stands to eke out 28 runs off the final over.

During the chase on the second ball of the innings itself, Deepak Chahar dismissed the RR skipper, Ajinkya Rahane. Chahar bowled a length bowl outside off which was shaping away and Rahane follows the swing with just his bat without getting to the pitch and the ball hit high on the bat and went aerially towards backward point, where Ravindra Jadeja put a dive forward, full length and took a brilliant catch. Third-umpire confirms that the catch was clean as it even proven by Raina when he kissed Jadeja after the catch. 

Here is the video of the dismissal:
