The Chairman of Mahindra Group, Mr. Anand Mahindra expressed his admiration for the former CSK captain MS Dhoni after his last over heroics against the Mumbai Indians on Sunday at the Wankhede Stadium.
Chennai Super Kings registered their fourth win of the ongoing 2024 edition of the Indian Premier League, defeating Mumbai Indians by 20 overs. MS Dhoni’s 20-run knock (off 4 deliveries) helped CSK post a total of 206 runs in their alloted 20 overs.
Dhoni walked out to bat with 4 balls left in the innings and took the game by storm. He smashed three back-to-back sixes followed by a double to end the CSK innings on a high.
After his knock, social media went into a frenzy and was flooded with reactions from the fans. Anand Mahindra, the famous industrialist, who is very active on social media, made a cheeky remark by linking his name to that of the CSK batter.

In his Tweet, Anand Mahindra suggested that unrealistic expectations and pressure only seem to ignite MS Dhoni’s determination even further. Mahindra wrote:
“Can you show me one sportsperson who excels more than this man – under the weight of unrealistic expectations and pressure? It merely intensifies his determination. Today, I’m just thankful that my name is Mahi-ndra.”

Talking about the match, before MS Dhoni unleashed the beast in him, CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad also played a brilliant innings of 69 runs off 40 balls and gave a solid start to the innings, while Shivam Dube, who played a brilliant knock of 66 off 38 balls, provided the finishing touch to the side.
Despite a valiant effort from opener Rohit Sharma, who scored 105 off 63 balls, MI couldn’t secure the win. This was due to some economical and sharp bowling from Tushar Deshpande, who took 1 wicket for 29 runs, and Matheesha Pathirana, who claimed 4 wickets for 28 runs.
