Update: The not-so-manic Punisher

In the first 4 games of the ongoing series against England, the Indian team has twice chased a target and won an ODI , taking their tally to a world-record 15 consecutive successful chases. In an earlier post I had alluded to the role played by MS Dhoni in this amazing streak. In the two chases since my post he has contributed:

230/6, Dhoni: 39 (off 55 balls)
238/6, Dhoni: 10* (off 13 balls)

In the course of this streak his aggregate is now at 624 runs in 11 innings, dismissed just 3 times (average: 208.00).
