MS Dhoni evaded dismissal from the initial delivery faced during Chennai Super Kings’ IPL 2024 clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad. His spouse, Sakshi, rejoiced at this occurrence. Furthermore, MS Dhoni promptly scored a boundary, thereby continuing his stellar performance in the T20 tournament.
The event occurred during the 20th over of the Super Kings’ innings. T Natarajan threw a low full ball, and MS Dhoni tried for a massive shot to deep square leg. Abhishek Sharma dashed in to collect the ball, but he was unable to grasp it before it flew for a boundary. The Chepauk audience, including Sakshi, cheered as Sharma failed to catch the ball, resulting in a boundary.

Sakshi’s reaction below:
MS Dhoni calmly struck a single from the next delivery. He stayed unbeaten on 5 runs, facing just 2 balls. Remarkably, Dhoni hasn’t been dismissed this season. In 7 innings, he’s amassed 96 runs at an astonishing 259.45 strike rate.
Ruturaj Gaikwad Falls Short of Century, But CSK Sets 213-Run Target vs SRH in IPL 2024 Match
Ruturaj flirted with a hundred but narrowly missed the mark. However, CSK’s innings was solid: they amassed 212/3 against SRH in the IPL on Sunday.
The skipper led from the front, hitting 98 runs off 54 balls in an innings that included three sixes and ten boundaries. He formed a 107-run partnership with Daryl Mitchell for the second wicket. Mitchell and Shivam Dube both contributed with 52 (32) and 39*(20), respectively.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, and Jaydev Unadkat each claimed one wicket.
After defeat at the hands of Lucknow, CSK aims to triumph. The quintuple champs intend to settle scores with Hyderabad. A six-wicket loss demands redemption, driving their motivation.
Meanwhile, SRH will seek to replicate LSG and upset CSK by pursuing a 200-plus target at MA Chidambaram Stadium. Sunrisers suffered a 35-run defeat against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their most recent match.
