MS Dhoni is known for sending any bowlers to hiding through his monstrous sixes and one of his most memorable sixes is the World Cup-winning hit in 2011 at the Wankhede Stadium. Dhoni let his fans live that moment once again by hitting a huge six during a net session at the same stadium on Friday.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni's sixes are as famous as he is and one of the sixes which made a mark on all his fans all over the world is the one he hit in 2011 World Cup at the Wankhede Stadium. In April 2011, in the finals, Dhoni hit a monster six on the ball of Lankan pacer Nuwan Kulasekara and ended India's 28-year-long wait to lift the World Cup trophy. India defeated Sri Lanka by six wickets in front of a jam-packed crowd at the Wankhede Stadium.Ā 

Yesterday, during a net session ahead of the first ODI against New Zealand, the 36-year-old hit a monster six that invariably took his fans to that famous maximum against Sri Lanka. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared a video ofĀ this six.Ā 

"When @msdhoni hits a big one at the Wankhede Stadium, it invariably takes us back to that famous six in 2011."

The video became one of the most 'loved' posts within minutes.
