MS Dhoni created history: Former Chennai Super Kings captain Dhoni has achieved a big achievement in the match against Punjab Kings. He became the first wicketkeeper in IPL history to take 150 catches. With the catch of Punjab batsman Jitesh Sharma, he became the wicketkeeper with 192 catches in IPL. On Sunday, against Punjab, MS Dhoni returned to the pavilion without opening his account.
In this list, Dinesh Karthik is close to MS Dhoni with 141 catches. Wriddhiman Saha is third in this list with 119 catches. Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant can become such a wicketkeeper in the future who can break MS Dhoni's record. Pant has taken 75 catches so far in IPL.
Dhoni made a unique record
Dhoni has created a unique record by batting at number nine in the match against Punjab Kings. This is the first time in the history of IPL that Dhoni has come to bat after number eight. Dhoni is seen in a different perspective in IPL 2024. He comes to bat in the last over of the innings and focuses on hitting big shots. In the match against Punjab, Dhoni sent Mitchell Santner and Shardul Thakur to bat before him. However, Harshal Patel sent Dhoni to the pavilion cheaply.
Chennai Super Kings boosted their playoff hopes with a 28-run win over Punjab on Sunday, thanks to an explosive performance by all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. Jadeja scored 43 runs off 26 balls with the help of three fours and two sixes, taking three wickets for just 20 runs in four overs, helping CSK win after five consecutive defeats against Punjab.
