MS Dhoni, the legendary former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain, delivered a stunning performance on Friday in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 match against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). Dhoni, who came to bat at number eight, hit 28 runs in just nine balls, which included 16 runs in the final over.
The wicket of Moeen Ali in the 18th over led to Dhoni’s arrival, which was unsurprisingly met with a huge ovation from the fans in Lucknow, who cheered their hearts out for Dhoni. The fans were ecstatic as Dhoni walked out to bat, and their cheers were so loud that they reached a decibel level of 95 decibels.
