Legendary Indian and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni on Sunday became the first Indian glovesman to score 7,000 runs in T20 cricket.
The 42-year-old veteran accomplished this milestone against Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
During the match, Dhoni was at his best. Coming at the end, CSK's five-time IPL champions' former captain smashed 37 in just 16 balls, with four boundaries and three sixes. His strike rate was 231.25. The result did not matter to CSK fans, as they were happy to see their 'Thala' bat and punish pacer Anrich Nortje by smashing him for 20 runs in the last over.
