MS Dhoni's 10-Year-Old Tweet Viral As Fans Celebrate His Knock Despite CSK's Loss

MS Dhoni is an emotion. Despite being 42 years old, the Chennai Super Kings stalwart continues to entertain fans with his batting ability. His 16-ball 37 against Delhi Capitals came a little too late in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash on Sunday.

With CSK needing 58 off 18 balls, Dhoni walked out to bat for the first time this season amid chants of "Dhoni Dhoni" and treated his fans to some delightful shots.

Dhoni then clobbered a six over extra cover off Ahmed, who ended up with three wides to concede 12 runs. But Mukesh conceded just 5 runs in the 19th over to crush CSK's dream, leaving them to make an impossible 41 off the last over.
