When the early wickets fell, everyone expected skipper MS Dhoni to steady the ship and take his team to a respectable total, however, this wasn’t the case as the right-handed batsman yet again was bowled by a googly. CSK skipper looked good in the start and scored two boundaries but his stay on the crease was cut short by Ravi Bishnoi for just 12 runs.
It was during the last delivery of the 12th over when Ravi Bishnoi bowled a googly and MS Dhoni came up with a half-hearted waft outside off and the ball kissed the inside edge and went on to hit the sticks.
