MS Dhoni has been labelled as the 'finisher' by many of his fans and even a few cricketing pundits. Even during the IPL 2021 match against  Sunrisers Hyderabad, the Chennai Super Kings captain finished it off in style and took the team to the playoffs. The fans immediately remembered his stylish six in World Cup 2011 finals against Sri Lanka after which India brought the glory home after more than a couple of decades. The fans drew similarities between the maximum that he slammed during the CWC 2021 finals and also the six that he slammed against Siddharth Kaul during the match against SRH.
