Against KIXP 2016 
In a match between two bottom line teams of Indian Premier League 2016 batting first Kings, XI Punjab scored, who ended at the bottommost place of IPL, scored 172, a good total in 20 overs cricket but not formidable total to defend. Murali Vijay and Gurkeerat Singh scored 59 and 51 respectively.
Rising Pune Supergiants lost wickets in regular interval. Usman Khawaja andThisara Perera tried to stick at the crease but their innings cut short by Gurkeerat Singh and Sandeep Sharma. Dhoni, who was brutally criticized in the recent time for his defensive approach to his batting, produced one of the great match winning innings in the last match of his IPL campaign. It was the match to prove himself once again amid criticism that the time is up for Dhoni.
But Dhoni knows what he was thinking during his batting. He sticks with the crease till the end and in the last over when RPS needed 20 runs from the last over. He hit sixes in the last two balls to win the match by four wickets. The bowler who bowled last over was Axar Patel.
But this was not the first time Dhoni win matches from difficult situations. Here two other occasions when Dhoni won matches for his former Chennai Super Kings with sixes.
