Dhoni hit the likes of Mohsin Khan and Yash Thakur for cleaners by displaying a wide array of shots, which included a huge 101 meter long maximum as well.

Dhoni’s cameo comprised three boundaries and a couple of maximums. He batted at a strike rate of 311.11, and wasn’t afraid to try new shots that he seems to have developed in his arsenal. For once, he walked across the over wicket to lob Mohsin for a six behind the stumps. In the final delivery of the innings, he produced a cracking flat batted effort that made a wide yorker storm past point for a boundary.

Mohsin seemed to have come in with a clever strategy of taking pace off the ball and keeping it out of Dhoni’s hitting range. However, the 42-year-old was all prepared to take on those challenges, displaying some crafty shots along with a six that he muscled out of the park to get his team to a formidable score of 176.
