Dhoni will be remembered as one of the greatest finishers the game has ever: DC coach Ricky Ponting

CSK have made it to their ninth IPL final.
The Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting was awestruck by Mahendra Singh Dhoni's cool demeanour under pressure, describing the legendary Chennai Super Kings skipper as one of the greatest finishers of the game.
The ageless Dhoni produced a nostalgic little innings to take a band of old men from CSK into their ninth Indian Premier League final after beating DC by four wickets in the Qualifier 1 here on Sunday night.
Needing 13 off the last over, skipper Dhoni hit a square cut, got a bit of luck going his way and then pulled DC's best bowler Tom Curran for the most celebrated T20 boundary of recent times.
