MS Dhoni Out For Golden Duck: CSK legend MS Dhoni did not personally have a memorable outing with the bat in the Punjab Kings (PBKS) vs Chennai Super Kings (CSK) match at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala on Sunday (May 5). While the Men in Yellow did manage to beat PBKS by 28 runs to get to 12 points on the table, Dhoni departed for a golden duck. Several of the CSK fans were eagerly waiting for Dhoni to come out and play a special innings as the team was in a spot of bother, losing too many wickets for their liking. 

But first the team management opted to keep Dhoni back until the team was 7 wickets down, marking the wicketkeeper-batter's first innings from number 9 in T20s, before falling to a first-ball duck to Harshal Patel. The PBKS bowler, who finished with figures of 3/24 off his four overs, deceived the Master Finisher with a slower yorker that uprooted Dhoni's wickets to see to end his innings.

Despite seeing the end of Dhoni, Harshal, refused to celebrate his wicket and only threw his hands up in the air. Later, Harshal said that he had too much respect for the man to celebrate after getting him out.
