Last IPL, Dhoni hit seven sixes, his lowest IPL haul ever. That season, Dhoni scored 416 runs, hit a highest score of 84*, averaged 83.2 with a strike rate of 134.62. Dhoni was unbeaten in 25 successful IPL chases before Sunday, with a strike rate of 153.6. That innings, Dhoni finished with a strike rate of 205.88, his highest ever in a winning chase. That Dhoni bats more freely when CSK aren’t chasing is overwhelmingly proved by his strike rates in the death overs.
