The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) icon, MS Dhoni, became the fourth Indian striker to break 350 six in T20 format in their match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Arun Jaitley stadium on Tuesday in the 18th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Dhoni scripted the milestone in his name in the 16th in the first heats when Riyan Parag tried to surpass the captain of Chennai with his round movement and his zig-zag movement. Dhoni remained imperturbable, waited for the moment and hammered her flat on the head of Parag with his brute force. The 43 -year -old has only become the fourth Indian striker to achieve the feat after Rohit Sharma (542), Virat Kohli (434) and Suryakumar Yadav (368). Overall, the flamboyant Chris Gayle holds the record for most T20 maximums with a total of 1056.
CSK veteran exploits ended at the penultimate delivery of the first rounds. Dhoni has powerfully padded the draw with a little blow, but Tushar Deshpande pulled out his hands short, and the ball was stuck. With commentators trying to grasp the piece of magic of Deshpande, Dhoni, with an ironic smile, returned to the locker room with 16 (17).
Chennai sleeves were fed by Ayush Mhatre’s rapid draw from only 20 deliveries. After the dismissal of the 17 -year -old, CSK lost a few counters in a cluster. Shivam Dube and Dewald Brevis raised a 59 -point partnership to bring Chennai back in the thickness of the action.
When CSK showed signs of mounting a return, Akash Madhwal cleaned Brevis (42) with a late swing touch. Dube flexed his prowess struck by sending the ball for a maximum but lost his counter on the first ball of the last in Akash.
ASHUL KAMBOJ found the limit rope with precision, and Noor Ahmad ran two on the final delivery to raise Chennai to 187/8, a few points at short-creeping taking into account the nature with a strong score of the Arun Jaitley stadium.
