MS Dhoni excited everyone at Wankhede Stadium by scoring 20 runs really quickly for Chennai Super Kings. They beat Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League game on Sunday.
Even though Dhoni isn’t the captain anymore, he’s still the main focus whenever CSK plays. In the last few seasons, he’s been focusing on making quick, powerful plays. And it’s clear from his consistent performance with the bat that this strategy is working well.
Dhoni has been one of the biggest stars of the IPL since it started in 2008. He’s won the championship five times as the captain and has been great at batting too. Here are some of his top achievements in the IPL.
Sr No. | Record | Number |
1 | Joint-Most IPL Trophies Won As Captain | 5 |
2 | Most Runs As Keeper | 5016 |
3 | Most Dismissals Behind The Stumps | 184 |
4 | Most Appearances | 256 |
5 | Only Captain To Have Century of Victories | 133 |
6 | Most Finals Played | 11 |
Like I said before, Dhoni is really important for CSK in batting, keeping wickets, and leading the team. He’s done it all very well in the IPL, even when being the captain is tough. Look at these records – he’s played the most IPL matches ever, 256 in total!
The young wicketkeeper, MS Dhoni, hitting three sixes really helped us win. It made a big impact because we needed more runs on this pitch. Our captain, Ruturaj Gaikwad, said Dhoni’s 20 runs made all the difference.
