Batting first, CSK scored 210 for 6 in 20 overs and set a target of 211 for victory against Lucknow Super Giants. During this time Dhoni also completed his 6000 runs in T20 cricket. Dhoni is the first Indian wicketkeeper to achieve this feat in the shortest format of cricket.

Dhoni needed 16 runs to build this fame. Mahi became the sixth Indian batsman to score 6,000 runs in T20I with four balls to spare in CSK’s innings. Earlier, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Shikhar Dhawan and Robin Uthappa have made this feat.
