IPL 2016: 5 memorable moments from the Gujarat Lions-Rising Pune Supergiants match that don't fade away

#2 A Dashing Dhoni slog

Mahendra Singh Dhoni

Before the captaincy and the fame, he was a simple guy from Ranchi with long hair, someone whose hard-hitting approach made us fall in love with him. With captaincy, however, that ruthless approach has gone as he is now more composed than before.

However, every now and then, that incarnation of ‘Mahi’ appears and amazes us with his brutal hitting. Today was one such day.

As the team was collapsing and it looked like they would be bundled out for under 150, Dhoni made sure Du Plessis’ effort didn't go in vain. He came and scored 22 runs in just 10 balls, which included 2 fours and a six to make sure that Pune put up a challenging score.
