IPL 2025: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) prepare to play Rajasthan Royals (RR) in an attempt to regain pride in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday. Legendary wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni is set to mark another milestone in his incredible T20 career.
The 42-year-old needs only one six to score 350 sixes in T20 cricket, putting him dangerously close to a significant milestone. following accomplishing the accomplishment, he would become the fourth Indian, following Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Suryakumar Yadav, to reach this milestone and the 34th batter in the world.
With 349 sixes from 403 games, 7612 runs at an average of 37.68, and a strike rate of 135.75, the legendary captain has a remarkable T20 career record.
Chris Gayle still holds the record for most T20 maximums, having scored 1056 of them in 463 games, while Dhoni is getting closer to the 350-six milestone.
IPL2025: CSK hopes to defeat RR and regain dignity
The five-time champions will play RR to restore their dignity and concentrate on accumulating as many victories as they can to avoid finishing in last place now that CSK’s hopes of making the playoffs have been crushed.
Both as captain and as a batter, Dhoni has had his ups and downs since taking over as captain of CSK after the injury that sidelined Ruturaj Gaikwad.
Dhoni has amassed 180 runs at an average of 25.71 in 12 games this season, but despite his lackluster batting numbers, he has made a big difference when it counts, particularly with his undefeated 26 runs off only 11 balls last month, which earned him Player of the Match honours.
