WATCH: MS Dhoni’s Two Sixes Steal the Show at Chepauk! Video went Viral
In a stunning display of dominance, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) thrashed Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 50 runs at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
The highly anticipated IPL 2025 clash saw RCB put up a massive total of 196/7 in their 20 overs, leaving CSK with an uphill battle. Despite a lackluster chase, the night belonged to one man – MS Dhoni – who sent the crowd into a frenzy with his signature sixes!
RCB’s Batting Fireworks
RCB came out with intent, putting up an imposing total thanks to their aggressive batting approach. Star players fired on all cylinders, taking on the CSK bowlers with ruthless hitting.
With big contributions from the middle order and some late flourish, RCB ensured they reached a formidable total. CSK bowlers tried their best but had no answers to the relentless assault.
CSK’s Struggle and Dhoni’s Heroics
Chasing 197, CSK never really found momentum. Early wickets put them on the back foot, and even their experienced batters struggled against RCB’s disciplined bowling attack.
With the match slipping away, the fans had little to cheer for – until the last over when their beloved Thala, MS Dhoni, took center stage.
Even in defeat, Dhoni made sure to entertain!
With CSK needing a miracle, Dhoni faced Krunal Pandya in the final over. The result? Two monster sixes that sent the Chepauk crowd into absolute chaos!
- 19.3 – Krunal bowled it fast and angled in, but Dhoni was ready. He slogged it high over square leg, reminding everyone why he’s still the King of Chennai!
- 19.4 – This one was even bigger and better! A powerful shot over backward square that had the entire stadium roaring in unison.
And if that wasn’t enough, Dhoni wrapped it up with a stylish one-handed four off the final ball. Though CSK fell short, the crowd left with smiles, knowing they had witnessed yet another classic Dhoni moment.
