Legendary Indian keeper-batter MS Dhoni ensured a fitting finish for Chennai Super Kings during their ongoing IPL 2024 match against Lucknow Super Giants. 

Coming at number six, Dhoni hit a magnificent boundary on his only delivery to power CSK to a formidable 210-run total. 

The incident occurred during the final over of CSK when Dhoni had just entered the middle following the departure of Shivam Dube, who hammered a belligerent fifty. However, as Dube was run out at the non-striker's end, Dhoni was off strike for the fifth ball of the over. 

But as soon as Gaikwad took a single off the penultimate ball, Chepauk crowd erupted, expecting a clinical finish from their beloved Thala. 

The seasoned campaigner didn't disappoint his fans, finishing the hosts' innings with a boundary. 

It was a full length delivery from Marcus Stoinis, as Dhoni powerfully hit it through the leg side. The ball was so well-timed that it breached the fence in the blink of an eye. 

Chasing a steep 211-run target, the Super Giants had a disastrous start to their innings, as Deepak Chahar castled Quinton de Kock for a three-ball duck. As of writing, the visitors were four for one in 1.2 overs, with KL Rahul and Marcus Stoinis batting in the middle.
