"Best Picture of IPL 2018!" said one Twitter user. "Yeh fevicol ka jod hai. Tutega nahi," joked another.
During the match, Dhoni hit seven sixes in his match-winning knock. His wife Sakshi Dhoni was seen cheering him from the stands. Actor Anushka Sharma also cheered for husband Virat from the stands.
Days ago, a similar heartwarming moment touched a chord with social media. A five-seconds-long video captured some 'old bromance' between MS Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh. It shows Yuvi affectionately squeezing Dhoni's head while the latter received medical attention from the CSK physio after suffering a back injury during the match.
