Rahul Tewatia to MS Dhoni
NOT OUT! The dive from Dhoni saves him. Every Chennai fan and Dhoni fan would have had their hearts in their mouth but they can breathe a sigh of relief now. Flighted delivery on off, Dhoni pushes it to the left of short cover and comes out for quick run. He desperately wants to get off the mark but Jadeja turns his skipper down. The fielder charges to the ball and sends a good throw to Samson at the keeper's end. Dhoni turns his bike quickly and puts a desperate dive to get back in. The dive helps him as the replays find Dhoni to be back inside his crease.

Dhoni is off the mark for the season! On the pads, Dhoni flicks it to square leg and keeps the strike with one. Fantastic over from Tewatia. Just two runs off it and that is what Rajasthan needed to start the final 6 overs.
