The recent clash between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) was a treat for fans, witnessing stellar performances from both Rishabh Pant and MS Dhoni. While Pant’s outstanding 51 runs played a pivotal role in DC’s victory, Dhoni’s late blitz of 37 runs in just 16 balls rolled back the time for the fans.
Adding a touch of fun to the post-match buzz, Jio Cinema, the official digital IPL broadcaster, shared a delightful video featuring the two maestros.
The clip playfully portrays a role reversal, with Pant mimicking Dhoni’s trademark ‘no-look’ run-out attempt, while Dhoni is seen launching a one-handed six into the stands, mirroring Pant’s unorthodox batting style.
MS Dhoni with his vintage special vs DC
MS Dhoni, who didn’t bat prior to the DC vs CSK clash, came up with a superb 37* off 16 balls. While he failed to take CSK over the finishing line, it gave spectators in Vizag something to remember for a lifetime.
The 42-year-old hammered four boundaries and three lusty maximums en route to his knock that saw him strike at an immaculate rate of 231.25. Following his superb performance, several cricket pundits and fans have called for the former CSK captain to bat higher up the order in upcoming matches.
