Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is playing Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at Chennai's MA Chidambaram Stadium, on  March 28 (Friday). The person the fans will be most excited to watch is none other than MS Dhoni, who is still competing at the age of 43, over four years after he retired from international competition. The former captain of CSK and India is about to make history against the team captained by Rajat Patidar.

As of right now, MS Dhoni leads all batters in IPL history with 47 sixes against RCB. He will become the first player in history to hit 50 sixes against the franchise if he hits three more at the end of tonight's game.

Players with the most sixes against RCB in IPL history

  • MS Dhoni - 47
  • David Warner - 44
  • Andre Russell - 38
  • KL Rahul - 37
  • Rohit Sharma - 37

As of right now, MS Dhoni has 338 sixes in T20 cricket. After Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, he needs 12 more sixes in the 2025 Indian Premier League to become the third Indian player to reach 350 sixes in the game's shortest format.

Indian players with most T20 sixes

  • Rohit Sharma - 525
  • Virat Kohli - 419
  • Suryakumar Yadav - 343
  • Sanju Samson - 341
  • MS Dhoni - 338

At the moment, MS Dhoni is an uncapped player for CSK. This is due to a regulation that the BCCI implemented prior to the 2025 Indian Premier League, which states that a player may be considered uncapped if they had not participated in an international match in over four years. Nowadays, Dhoni generally plays lower in the order as a wicketkeeper. He batted at number eight and will continue to do so against RCB.
