Even at 43, Mahendra Singh Dhoni continues to mesmerise cricket fans with his unmatched wicketkeeping skills. In Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) IPL 2025 match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on Friday, he pulled off yet another lightning-fast stumping, reminding everyone why he is still one of the best in the game.
Dhoni’s sharp reflexes dismiss Phil Salt
Phil Salt was in top form, smashing 32 runs off just 16 balls with five fours and a six. But his promising innings was cut short by Dhoni’s sheer brilliance behind the stumps.
Salt, facing a sharp googly from Noor Ahmad, lost his balance for a fraction of a second. That was all Dhoni needed. In a split second, the bails were off, and the decision was sent upstairs. Replays confirmed that Salt’s foot was in the air, handing CSK a crucial breakthrough.
A moment of magic at Chepauk
The MA Chidambaram Stadium erupted in joy as Dhoni added another gem to his collection of stunning dismissals. The crowd knew they had just witnessed a moment of pure wicketkeeping genius.
This wasn’t the first time Dhoni had stunned a batter with his quick hands this season. In CSK’s opening match against Mumbai Indians, he had dismissed Suryakumar Yadav in a similarly breathtaking fashion. Despite his age, Dhoni’s sharp cricketing brain and lightning reflexes continue to outshine younger wicketkeepers.
