Chennai Super Kings captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni (MS Dhoni) has done more than one stumping in his cricket career. Everyone is surprised to see Dhoni’s stumping. The way Mahi runs out and stumps the batsmen is amazing. And we witnessed a fantastic view in the 29th match of IPL 2023. Dhoni looked agile behind the wicket during wicketkeeping. This is the reason why ‘Mahi’ is considered to be the best wicketkeeper in the world.
Meanwhile, Dhoni made the world record in his name. Dhoni has become the first wicket-keeper in IPL history to dismiss batsmen 200 times in IPL through amazing stumpings, catches and run-outs.
The 14th over of Sunrisers Hyderabad’s innings was amazing. Hyderabad batsman Mayank Agarwal avoided getting out on the first ball of this over. Ravindra Jadeja collided with Heinrich Klaasen during this, and thus Mayank’s catch was dropped, but on the fifth ball of the over, Mayank tried to charge and hit a shot on Ravindra Jadeja’s ball, but Dhoni caught the ball and stumped him.
Dhoni created history in IPL by stumping out Mayank. Mahendra Singh Dhoni, playing his 240th match, has become the first wicket-keeper in the IPL to have dismissed a batsman 200 times while doing amazing stumpings from behind the wicket. Apart from this, in T20 cricket, Dhoni has also become the first wicket-keeper to catch the most catches, who has caught a total of 208 catches.
