The most obvious choice in this team is Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Dhoni has led the Chennai Super Kings to two titles and has been the most successful skipper in the IPL. His batting and wicket keeping ability add to make a lethal combination.
The former India skipper has scored 3561 runs at an average of 37.88 with a strike rate of 136.75 in the IPL, and most of his runs have come in the lower middle order (no.5,6 and 7). He has affected 106 dismissals in form of catches and stumpings. Dhoni has finished many last ball thrillers including the famous one where he scored 23 off Axar Patel's final over to win the game for Rising Pune Super Giant.
