Rising Pune Supergiants lost their match against Sunrisers Hyderabad by four runs after skipper Dhoni got run out in the last over, thanks to some athletic fielding by Yuvraj.
Thanks to a superb six-wicket haul by leg-spinner Adam Zampa, Sunrisers Hyderabad could put only 137 on board.
Pune Supergiants needed 14 runs to win off the final over with the skipper Dhoni himself at the crease.
With Ashish Nehra bringing in his experience, just two runs came off the first three balls, after which Dhoni smashed a six.
Another six was needed from two balls. Dhoni got an edge off the next ball, which went towards third man. As a desperate Dhoni ran for two, Yuvraj Singh collected the ball from the deep, ran to the stump himself and removed the wicket.
Yuvraj Singh then went for a long sprint to celebrate Dhini;s rare last over run out.
