Former India captain and the current skipper of Chennai Super Kings, MS Dhoni is in the form of his life having scored a total of 360 from ten IPL games at an average of 90.00 in this year’s Indian Premier League.

The wicket-keeper batsman has hit three half-centuries in IPL 2018 so far.

Many had criticised Dhoni’s inability to finish off the games but this year’s IPL has been a total turn-around, as the CSK captain has scored at a strike rate of 165.89.

Dhoni has been instrumental in CSK’s brilliant return to the IPL this season. The 36-year old is having his best IPL ever and has hit 19 boundaries and a whopping 27 sixes in the season so far.

He also the sixth highest run-getter in this year’s IPL ahead of the likes of Virat Kohli and Ab de Villiers.

Dhoni has been in the headlines for his impressive return to form. However, this time, it’s his love for dogs which has brought him into the limelight once again.

The former India captain took one of his ‘friend’ for a ride to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) dressing room. It is unclear if the dog belonged to Dhoni or not. According to reports, it was the same dog which Dhoni had requested the Maharashtra Cricket Association to adopt.

CSK is playing their home matches at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune due to security concerns in Chennai because of protests by various groups for the formation of the Cauvery management board.

In a video posted on the official CSK’s Twitter handle, Dhoni along with teammate, Deepak Chahar took the dog for a tour of the CSK dressing room with a caption,

“My friend is here”.
