After Raina, Dhoni also set a record straight, scoring his first half-century in the format. FIRST! In a fabled career across formats – especially the shorter ones – he had seen all and done pretty much all, but this was one box that, as if by oversight, was left unchecked. It was understandable though, as he has mostly batted lower down the order. And not unsurprisingly it came on the back of a promotion up the order as Dhoni was sent ahead of Yuvraj Singh.
He shared two fifty-run partnerships with Raina and Yuvraj and set India up for 200. It was a daunting task and England needed a lot of maximums to salvage something out of long Indian winter.
But they fell in a heap to the one who has ‘6’ written on his back — Chahal.
