Sam Curran bowled a slower short ball outside off, which Dhoni treated likely as it had plenty of width for him. Dhoni slapped it over backward point for a six.

On the very next ball, Curran bowled a full toss at the stumps as Dhoni swung hard and deposited the ball over midwicket for another six.

Dhoni finished with 13 runs from just four balls with an incredible strike rate of 325.00.

Fans were delirious with joy for their Thala:

It was Devon Conway though, who continued his sensational run with an unbeaten 92 as CSK Kings posted a challenging 200/4 against PBKS. Electing to bat, Conway smashed 16 fours and a six during his 52-ball knock, while Ruturaj Gaikwad (37) and Shivam Dube (28) made useful contributions before MS Dhoni (13 not out) slammed two sixes off the last two balls of the innings to take CSK to the psychological 200-run mark.

“It was a great atmosphere when it (Dhoni’s two sixes) went out of the park," Conway said at the innings break.

For Punjab, Arshdeep Singh (1/37), Sam Curran (1/46), Rahul Chahar (1/35) and Sikandar Raza (1/31) took one wicket each.
