Chasing a target of 173 against Delhi Capitals, CSK went off to a poor start losing key player Faf du Plessis in the first over.
The innings was then anchored by Ruturaj Gaikwad (70 off 50) and Robin Uthappa (63 off 44).
Towards the end when the match could have gone either way, Dhoni slammed 18 off just six balls with the help of three fours and one six to chase down the target.
