Dhoni smashed four boundaries and two sixes.<\/p>\n<p>The second-best batsman was Dwayne Bravo (12), who shared 39 runs with Dhoni for the seventh wicket, the greatest partnership in the CSK innings. The CSK score would have been substantially lower if not for the 15 extras conceded by the Mumbai bowlers.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Sams took three wickets for 16 runs for MI, while Riley Meredith (2\/27) and Kumar Kartikeya (2\/22) both took two wickets.<\/p>\n<p>Four-time IPL champions Chennai\u2019s playoff dreams are on a knife\u2019s edge, as a loss today will remove them from the race. If MS Dhoni\u2019s team wins their remaining games and other results go their way, they have a chance to move up.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/msdhoniwarriors\/status\/1524775439922700288?s=21&t=YC3Ux4VGi7yDn2NsHYaowQ<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Whether 6 wickets gone or 9 wickets gone..<\/p>\n<p>Vintage <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Dhoni?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Dhoni<\/a> is enough..<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CSKvsMI?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CSKvsMI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/IPL2022?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#IPL2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ramesh Bala (@rameshlaus) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/rameshlaus\/status\/1524765793149358080?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 12, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Dhoni finishes off in style!
