The most famous six: are India and Sri Lanka in the 2011 ICC World Cup final in Mumbai.

Dhoni’s meeting with destiny was set for April 2, 2011, by the Almighty. India has overcome the odds and dealt with the stress of serving as the tournament’s host by reaching the championship game. India lost Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar early in the grand final while chasing 275. When Virat Kohli was dismissed with the score at 114, the game was still in doubt, but Gautam Gambhir and their solid partnership had helped India’s comeback.

Despite having trouble with the bat throughout the competition, Dhoni advanced to the final against an in-form Yuvraj Singh. He continued to play one of his best pitches after that and gave the job an air of ease. A billion people cheered the victory when Dhoni sent that pivotal Nuwan Kulasekara delivery into the stands at long-on with four required off of 11 deliveries. His 91 off 79-ball innings will always hold a special position in history.

Meeting Shoaib Akhtar at the second test between Pakistan and India in 2006 in Faisalabad.

Dhoni had made a name for himself during Pakistan’s 2005 tour of India, but he hadn’t yet come face to face with Shoaib Akhtar’s lightning-fast bowling. Dhoni had established himself as the intriguing young batsman when India arrived in Pakistan in 2006, and many people eagerly anticipated his matchup with Rawalpindi Express.

This opportunity did not arise in the first Test because Rahul Dravid and Virender Sehwag had an outstanding partnership. However, Dhoni entered the second Test at Faisalabad with India in trouble. When Dhoni left the game, India was 258 for four against Pakistan’s 588 in the first innings.

When Akhtar welcomed him with a short ball, Dhoni prepared to confront him. Another short and wide delivery followed, which Dhoni pursued and edged over the slips for a four-run delivery. After that, there were some words spoken, but Dhoni remained composed and finished the over. After an over, Akhtar quickly delivered another short one that angled into the body. Disdainfully pulling it, Dhoni sent it over the square-leg fence. Talk about using fire to put out a fire!

India vs. Australia 2013, 7th ODI, Bangalore; the helicopter shot 110 meters.

With his double ton in the game, Rohit Sharma wowed the crowd. James Faulkner bowled one full during the slog overs when Rohit and Dhoni were having a ball blasting the bowling to all corners. Dhoni let loose the chopper and sent it onto the M Chinnaswamy Stadium roof in Bangalore. The ball traveled 110 meters, soaring high in the air. This stroke was exceptional due to its sheer force. In slow motion, Dhoni’s entire body is coiling to add strength to the shot. His thighs, hips, and hips all transfer force to his arms.
