MS Dhoni produced a masterclass as Rising Pune Supergiant secured their second victory on the spin. The Twiterrati were full of praise of the former Indian captain's innings and Rashid Khan's performance while bashing Aussies David Warner and Steve Smith for their struggles in the game.

Brief Scores: Sunrisers Hyderabad 176/3 (Moises Henriques 55*, David Warner 43; Daniel Christian 1/20, Imran Tahir 1/23) lost to Rising Pune Supergiant 179/4 (Rahul Tripathi 59, MS Dhoni 61; Rashid Khan 1/17, Bipul Sharma 1/30) by 6 wickets.

For those hoping a repeat of the Yuvi-Dhoni showdown seen in MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, the day started with disappointment.

And then quickly turned to amusementΒ at the debuante from Pune Supergiant.

And then to boredom, as Warner got a brain fade and decided to play a Test match.

So it wasn't a surprise that the Hyderabad team management admitted they felt stranded until Henriques showed up.

Meanwhile, Pune had their own struggles, and lots of fans gloating on the Aussie skipper dropping a sitter.

And with his expensive bowling and shoddy batting, Pune must be wondering whether a Fixed Deposit would have given a better return for their 14.5 crores.

Concerned citizens meanwhile started lining outside the Indian consulate. We wonder if they are still present after Rashid's last over catch drop.

Pune's batting was lit up by this youngster, whom the Twiterrati couldn't stop praising.

The show, however, finally belonged to vintage Dhoni. And when we say vintage, we mean it.

Who before finishing the match, delivered a million fangasms across the world .

And before we end, good luck Internet. After the last two matches, CSK fans are back online!
