IPL 2017 Final: 5 reasons why Rising Pune Supergiant can beat Mumbai Indians

#5 Mahendra Singh Dhoni

MS Dhoni can win a record seventh T20 final

The man doesn't need much introduction and it is his presence which will guide the Supergiant to the finishing line. He has a point to prove this season as since being stripped of his captaincy and being at the centre stage of the unnecessary controversy of the RPS owner against him, Dhoni needs this trophy to silence one and all by winning the coveted accolade and adding to his already awe-inspiring trophy cabinet.

MS has not been able to bat as well as he would have loved to do but he still has won games this season for RPS and has been of immense help to Smith. His man management of the younger lot is paying dividends and as always his glove work has been on point.

Dhoni has a chance to go into the history books as well with a win tomorrow placing him as the only player to win seven T20 final wins for club and country.
