Towards the end of the innings, we saw him limping a little while collecting balls down the leg side. But he still pushed through and found the strength to come out and perform the way he did. Between the wickets, he wasn&rsquo;t running fluently&mdash;he was struggling. But, as always, he kept his cool and stitched together that partnership.</p>
<p>&ldquo;The closer it gets, the more difficult it becomes, the chances of [the opposition] making a mistake increase. That&rsquo;s where Dhoni is so good&mdash;he sneaks it in towards the very end and finished the match brilliantly,&rdquo; Bangar said on JioHotstar.</p>
