During the DC vs CSK IPL 2024 showdown at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam, Chennai Super Kings’ MS Dhoni pulled off an extraordinary shot. He returned to batting after a 307-day break. The 42-year-old cricket legend showed no signs of discomfort during his fiery 16-ball 37-run (not out) innings. What made his performance stand out was Dhoni’s smart play. Aware that CSK might not secure a win, he continued to smash breathtaking sixes to get his team as close to the target as possible.
However, after the match, it left the fans worried and concerned. The sight of him struggling to walk, with an ice cap on his left calf muscle, raised concerns among CSK supporters. They worry that Dhoni might have to sit out of IPL 2024, which could potentially be his final season in the tournament.
MS Dhoni: Nation’s Electric Striker
Known as the ‘Electric Striker’ for his brilliant performance at the Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA–VDCA Stadium, Visakhapatnam, MS Dhoni left everyone amazed. Dhoni’s innings impressed the seasoned cricketers, making them question whether age was really a factor for the 42-year-old.
Former Team India cricketer Kris Srikkanth expressed his admiration, saying, “I’m speechless. As an MS Dhoni fan, I’m over the moon. Witnessing such a performance at the age of 42 is incredible. Vintage Dhoni! Back in 2005, he smashed a century against Pakistan in Vizag after a rough start to his international career. He’s hitting sixes effortlessly, dismantling the opposition bowling attack.”
Get well soon Dhoni.
He is already well…
Best wishes to the CSK superstar!
