MS Dhoni added yet another feather to his glittering cap by becoming the first captain in Indian Premier League’s (IPL) history to lead for the 150th time when Chennai Super Kings took on Mumbai Indians at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Saturday. One of the most iconic figures in Indian cricket, Dhoni, who has led the country to several memorable triumphs, becoming the only captain to win all three ICC events, has replicated the same success in the IPL.
Out of the ten complete seasons, the 36-year-old has led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in all their eight seasons. Under his leadership, CSK became a force to reckon with under Dhoni. The Chennai-based outfit have won the title twice and ended second on four occasions.
In the ongoing edition, Dhoni has once again proved his detractors wrong by displaying his batting prowess as a finisher. Before yesterday match, He possesses an enviable strike-rate of 165.87 and has amassed 209 runs (in 6 matches) at 69.66.
