MS Dhoni is the ultimate star behind the stumps and the world believes him as much as a kid takes his mother for granted. David Warner obediently walked back as soon as the CSK skipper raised his hand to signal that he was out even though the third umpire was yet to come up with his decision.

Although Harbhajan Singh was successful in sending Jonny Bairstow back to the hut very early in the innings, the partnership between David Warner and Manish Pandey took shape and it reached the crescendo with the duo playing shots all around to dent CSK spinner's confidence. However, the off-spinner, once again, gave the team another crack when he dismissed David Warner in the 14th over, thanks to the man standing behind the stumps.

On the third delivery of the 14th over, Harbhajan gave the ball plenty of air that caught the Aussie on the move as he tried to play a cross-batted hoick over mid-wicket. However, the lack of balance resulted in the bottom hand coming off from the lower back and caught him off-guard in the crease.

MS Dhoni was very much alert behind the stumps and as soon as he collected the ball, he dislodged the bail to stump Warner. The umpire decided to go upstairs, but Dhoni was so confident that he raised his hand saying it was a clear dismissal. Warner also didn’t have any reason to stay back after seeing the CSK skipper’s reaction and started walking back even though the third umpire decision was still pending.
