5. MS Dhoni

MS Dhoni has arguably been hailed as one of the best finishers of the game. The hard-hitting wicket-keeper batsman has single-handedly won India many ODIs courtesy his blistering hitting down the order.
A bottom heavy player, Dhoni, with his strong forearms and wrists, uses his immense strength to hit some lusty blows. His sixes are low and flat courtesy the power he generates from his rapid bat swing.
‘Mahi’ knows just when to accelerate and keeps his composure to take the game deep and eventually ambush the opposition. Dhoni’s much-famed helicopter shot has become his trademark six hitting weapon and a favourite among his die-hard fans.
