#4 44* vs Australia, Adelaide, 2012

This innings will be remembered because of Dhoni's last over heroics. A slow paced innings, MS only made 44* off 58 with only one boundary, a six that came off the final over but this has to be one of the most memorable innings of Dhoni.
India were playing in the Tri-Series ( India, Australia, Sri Lanka ) in 2012. In the 4th match, India faced Australia at Adelaide and MS produced one of his greatest and most underrated knocks. India were chasing 270 and the match came down to the wire.
India needed 12 off 4, when MS who did not score a single boundary all day launched a mammoth six over long-on in Clint McKay's bowling. Then, MS in his usual calmness hit the remaining winning runs with 2 balls remaining. India got a much-needed revenge with the win against Australia after losing to them in the first match.
