Very different batsmen, I'd go with Bevan if there was a lower order batting collapse, but Dhoni if you needed big runs fast. One of Bevans greatest assets was his running between Wkts, he's an ATG at that art.

dhoni also runs fast between the wickets plus he has the ability to play big shots which bevan lacked. bevan was not test material and dhoni is a rubbish test player outside subcontinent especially

Dhoni is one and only , no one bat like him He is uniquely great Finisher Game after game. I wish patel must at MCG , very useful if Bangladesh bat 2nd.

Dhoni is improvised Bevan, with ability to hit big boundaries and sixes and more ability to absorb pressure. Dhoni can do everything Bevan could, and do more. Bevan lacked the ability to hit sixes which could be a serious issue for Bevan in one-one comparison with Dhoni.

Check Dhoni's innings against Pakistan in Dec 2012 on Youtube.He came in at 29/5 in seaming conditions and made a century
Bevan did that many times, and unlike Dhoni he was able to score tons away from home, and he didn't cash in on the likes of HongKong and Bangladesh lol.

Bevan and Dhoni is a good comparison as they are in a league of their own ( only Klusener and Symonds for brief periods are comparable). No one else in world comes close to them. Between them, Dhoni edges it for his big hitting as others mentioned. Running between wickets, rotating strike , waiting for lose balls,etc are all very similar.

Both are quality finishers. Bevan was The best finisher of his time, and Dhoni is the best finisher of the modern era. The likes of Klusner and Hussey were other great finishers too.
