Mahendra Singh Dhoni has not got much opportunity with the bat so far in IPL 2024, but the Chennai Super Kings veteran will look to make his presence felt if he gets the chance against rivals Mumbai Indians on Sunday (April 14) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

The seasoned campaigner, who has been at his best behind the stumps despite a troublesome knee, rolled back the years with a flashy knock in one innings he got to face more than five balls this season.

Dhoni has come out to bat in the three innings this season, smashing an unbeaten 37 off 16 balls vs Delhi Capitals in Visakhapatnam, and then faced two deliveries for an unbeaten 1 vs Sunrisers Hyderabad in Hyderabad followed by another 1 not out off 3 balls vs Kolkata Knight Riders.

The former skipper will look to dazzle the crowd with another cameo when he faces a team he has scored over 700 runs so far in IPL history. Here's a look at MS Dhoni record vs MI in IPL:
