Mahendra Singh Dhoni
defeated the Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League on Sunday, scoring an
incredible century. This show was a knock that rolled back the years.
The moment MS Dhoni came into the centre of the field with a bat in hand, the Visakhapatnam crowd went absolutely crazy. Absolutely amazing, MS Dhoni. Notwithstanding the bizarre surroundings, Dhoni made sure that the crowd had a memorable time. This season was his first time batting, and he looked terrific.
Even with his presence, CSK fell against Delhi, who won by 20 runs behind a century from Rishabh Pant. It was Delhi's first victory of the year.

The renowned wicket keeper batter came out to bat in the seventeenth over, with CSK behind the game. Dhoni captivated the audience in the arena as he scored an unbeaten 37 runs off of just 16 balls, shocking the crowd. In all, the former captain hit six sixes and four fours.
Anrich Nortje was bowled by CSK with 41 runs required in the last over, and Dhoni hit the opening ball for a boundary through extra cover. The legendary CSK not only continued to exact revenge on Nortje for his mistakes, but he also fell short of the intended line and length. The batsman hit the second ball, a full toss, for six over the centre of the wicket with one hand. His luck was still not improving, even though the Proteas pacer's fourth ball was a full toss that raced for four.
