And does it with the bat as well!

26 sixes for MS Dhoni this IPL - his most in an IPL season.

He had hit 25 sixes in 2013. #CSKvRCB

Dread it, run from it, destiny still arrives!

Dhoni plays out Chahal early on in the first match against RCB. Kohli saves him for the end overs in the next match. Dhoni ends up hitting Chahal for 3 sixes. Just MSD things #RCBvsCSK

Indeed he should!

Dhoni should retire in order to save careers of others 😂😂😂

3 sixes 3 ball #dhoni
