MS Dhoni becomes first wicket keeper to Complete 100 ODI Stumpings

Written by Shreyas Vyas

Team India wicket keeper MS Dhoni on Sunday surpassed legendary Kumar Sangakkara’s record for most stumpings in ODI Cricket, as he reached his 100th stumping against Sri Lanka in the fifth ODI at RPS.

He achieved this feat on the last ball of the 45th over of the fifth ODI against Sri Lanka. He stumped Akila Dananjaya off Yuzvendra Chahal’s ball.

Dhoni now has 381 dismissals (281 catches and 100 stumpings) as a wicketkeeper in ODIs. He is currently fourth in the list of wicketkeepers with most ODIs. Sangakkara (482) leads the chart with Adam Gilchrist with 472 and Mark Boucher with 424 at second and third respectively.

some of his moves while keeping in this series proved he is still the best limited overs wicket keeper of India!
