Top 5 death overs batsmen in the IPL

2. Mahendra Singh Dhoni

Mahendra Singh Dhoni has crafted a career – indeed, a personality – using cunning, calm, and aggression in judicious amounts. It is these skills that give him a strong case to be among the all-time greats of one-day cricket. However, one mustn’t forget that it was his explosive innings’ that put him at the forefront of Indian cricket during his early days.

While it can be argued that he doesn’t have the same propensity for destruction these days (with the constraints of captaincy and his position in the batting order), he remains one of cricket’s foremost threats at the back-end of an innings.
