It's the fifth ball of the penultimate over of the Chennai Super Kings innings in Qualifier 1 of IPL 2021, against Delhi Capitals. Avesh Khan steams in and bangs it short outside off. MS Dhoni stands in his crease, sees the ball till the last moment, and smacks the pull.
It's substantially outside the off stump but he still manages to connect to it maintaining the stillness and composure. There is a fielder at deep mid-wicket but he watches the ball sail over him and into the stands. He's cleared that long boundary with an 84m six. It's THAT trademark Dhoni pull. But what catches your attention first is the sound of the bat hitting the ball. It's probably the sweetest he's hit a ball in this tournament.
