Following Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) 27-run victory over the five-time champions CSK, wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik revealed about how it was a massive six by MS Dhoni that made all the winning difference for RCB as the Faf du Plessis side sealed a Playoffs berth after a forgettable start to their IPL campaign.

CSK needed 17 runs off the last over to secure the final Playoffs berth and it was MS Dhoni on strike. He smashed a 110-metre six as left-arm pacer Yash Dayal bowled a hip-high full toss which was sent out of the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. "The best thing to happen today was Dhoni hitting that six outside the ground, and we got a new ball, which was much better to bowl with," Karthik said in a video posted by RCB.
