MS Dhoni usually maintains his composure even when there's utter chaos. But on Tuesday during the 2nd One-day International in Adelaide, the former Indian captain lost his cool while chasing a 299-run target set by Australia. Dhoni snapped at Khaleel Ahmed, who had stepped on the pitch while delivering water to the batsmen. Dhoni and Karthik still had their hearts in mouth as India had quite a long way to go in the match. Guess Khaleel Ahmed was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Watch this video:

Later in the match, MS Dhoni smashed the winning run, helping India clinch the match by six wickets. Virat Kohli had scored his 39th hundred and MS Dhoni impressed with an unbeaten half-century. Kohli and Dhoni shared an 82-run stand for the fourth-wicket to keep India on the winning course despite chasing a tough 299-run target. With the thrilling last-over win, India levelled the ODI series 1-1, having lost the opening match in Sydney by 34 runs. The decider of the series will be played in Melbourne on Friday.
Virat Kohli top-scored for India with 104 runs, while Dhoni contributed an unbeaten 55 not out to lead India's chase. Dinesh Karthik played a brilliant cameo towards the end of the Indian innings and was unbeaten on 25 as India reached the target with four balls to spare.
