5) Kings XI Punjab vs Chennai Super Kings (IPL 2010)

The Chennai Super Kings had made a terrible start to their campaign by only winning 2 out of their initial 7 games. But Doug Bollinger’s arrival was the impetus that they needed as they then went on an impressive winning streak.

But now they faced Punjab in a do or die encounter in which they had to record a victory to qualify for the semi finals.

But the match looked to be firmly in Punjab’s grasp with Chennai needing around 50 runs required from the last three overs and then 16 from the final over.

In one of the most iconic MS Dhoni moments, the Chennai captain smashed Irfan Pathan for two sixes and a four to drag Chennai into the semi finals.
