Shot of the Day – MS Dhoni whacks Pandya for monstrous six at Wankhede- MI vs CSK IPL 2024

With his spectacular knock against the Mumbai Indians (MI) on Sunday, April 14, during Match 29 of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, former captain of both Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and India, MS Dhoni, once again turned back the clock. In the final over of the innings, with four balls remaining, the wicketkeeper-batter decided to bat. He attacked Hardik Pandya, hitting him for three straight sixes.

With each hit, the 42-year-old electrified the crowd with a rapid-fire knock of 20 off just four balls. The first of Dhoni’s three maximums was remarkable; he struck a wide delivery outside the off stump and lofted it high into the night sky, where it crossed long off for a huge six.
