MS Dhoni and records certainly go hand in hand as the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain added another feather to his already illustrious hat during the clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Dream11 Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020. By dismissing AB de Villiers in the 11th over, the talismanic cricketer became the wicket-keeper with most catches in IPL history. Before the game, Dhoni and Dinesh Karthik were tied with 104 catches apiece. However, the former went past the Kolkata Knight Riders captain after taking a good catch off Shardul Thakur’s delivery. Dhoni widened the margin with Karthik even more as dismissed Washington Sundar with his 106th IPL catch. CSK vs RCB Score Updates IPL 2020.

Wicket-keeping is indeed a thankless job, and it also challenges the fitness of an individual. However, Dhoni is someone who has changed the course of many games with his prowess behind the stumps.

Dhoni, in fact, is the most successful wicket-keeper in IPL history with 145 dismissals – 106 catches and 39 stumpings.
