Mahendra Singh Dhoni is still providing the big hits in the Indian Premier League. One of the biggest stars of the game, and the League, the Chennai Super Kings captain hit sixes of the last two balls against Punjab Kings (PBKS) to help his team to 200 in the IPL game on Sunday.
Though CSK were unable to defend the title, the 41-year-old showed he is far from done yet.
A destructive batsman and intuitive captain, he was the posterboy of the T20 League when it was first launched in 2008. Fifteen years, and many more success stories later, Dhoni continues to be one of the lead characters.

Has been crucial to CSK winning four IPL titles. Even though Dhoni has retired from other forms of cricket, he can still turn and win matches with the swing of the bat.
