Chennai: Mahendra Singh Dhoni is considered one of the best wicketkeepers in cricket history. When Dhoni made his debut for India in 2004, his keeping was not that good. He was also scolded many times. Dhoni worked hard and soon became one of the best wicketkeepers. Dhoni played his last match for India in 2019. Dhoni, who is 42 years old, plays only in IPL but there is still no answer to his agility behind the wicket.
Dhoni took the catch in the air
Mahendra Singh Dhoni took the catch of Vijay Shankar while flying in the air in the match against Gujarat Titans. In the 8th over, Vijay Shankar tried to drive the ball of Darrell Mitchell. The ball took the outside edge of Vijay’s bat and went towards first slip. But wicketkeeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was ready. He jumped in the air and caught the catch. The entire Chepauk stadium danced on Dhoni’s catch.
Run out in the first match
Chennai Super Kings played their first match of the season against RCB. Dhoni’s amazing keeping was seen in that match also. Dinesh Karthik could not play the shot on the last ball of RCB’s innings and runs started running away. Anuj Rawat was on the other end. He tried his best but Dhoni hit the underarm throw straight on the wicket.
