Chennai Super Kings' captain MS Dhoni smashed five sixes off one over in a Champions League Twenty20 match against Sunrisers Hyderabad to lead his team to a 12-run victory.

According to the Daily Telegraph, Dhoni made 63 off 19 balls as the Super Kings set Sunrisers a total of 4-202 for victory, but the chasers fell 12 runs short.

Dhoni tore Thisara Perera's medium pace to shreds in the 18th over of his team's innings, blasting five deliveries over the rope, while Perera also conceded two wides and another two runs to the Indian destroyer for a total of 34, the report said.

It was the fastest fifty in Champions League T20 history.
