The Chepauk stadium was charged with excitement and anticipation as MS Dhoni took the field to bat for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in a much-anticipated match against Mumbai Indians (MI). CSK needed 4 runs to win off 8 balls, and the crowd stood up on their feet as their icon took the field.

Dhoni walked in when Ravindra Jadeja was run out, and it was a dramatic moment. But the moment Dhoni walked onto the field, the crowd went into a frenzy of loud cheers. Everyone was chanting his name, waving CSK flags, and taking the moment on their mobile phones. The entire stadium came alive.

Although it was only 4 runs, the crowd wanted to see Dhoni finish the match in his usual fashion. A little earlier during the game, Dhoni already proved that he still has it with an incredibly fast stumping to send Suryakumar Yadav back in the 11th over. It was a moment that reminded all of us why Dhoni is still one of the wisest players on the field.

You know the crowd hits peak volume when this gentleman walks in! 😮‍💨🫰🏻
