IPL 2024: Gaikwad, Dune Fifties, Dhoni Cameo Help Chennai Super Kings Reach 206/4 Vs MI
Chennai Super Kings: Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube blasted quick-fire half-centuries while MS Dhoni blazed to a four-ball unbeaten 20 as Chennai Super Kings posted 206/4 in 20 overs against Mumbai Indians in Match 29 of Indian Premier League (ILP) 2024 at the Wankhede Stadium here on Sunday.
Gaikwad and Dube, who come from the same state but play for different associations -- Maharashtra and Mumbai respectively, at the domestic level, added 90 runs for the third wicket to help CSK recover from 60/2 in the 8th over after being asked to bat first.
Gaikwad hammered a 40-ball 69 coming in at No.3 while Dube blasted 66 not out off 36 balls. Dhoni then showed why he is still considered one of the best finishers in the game as he hammered Hardik Pandya for three sixes off successive deliveries in the final over to take CSK past 200 runs.
