MS Dhoni Makes History: First Wicketkeeper to Achieve This Milestone in T20 Cricket!

Off-White Arrow

The legendary wicketkeeper-batter, who recently stepped down as CSK's captain, displayed his mastery behind the stumps by claiming a crucial catch during the match, marking his 300th dismissal in T20 cricket.

The historic catch occurred on the fourth ball of the 11th over, when DC opener Prithvi Shaw, returning to the XI, attempted a cut shot off Ravindra Jadeja's delivery. 

Prior to his milestone, the record was held jointly by Kamran Akmal and Dinesh Karthik, with 274 dismissals each.

Shaw's explosive performance included a formidable 93-run partnership for the opening wicket with David Warner, who contributed a fine half-century with 52 runs. 

Capitalizing on the solid foundation laid by Shaw and Warner, DC posted a formidable total of 191/5. Warner's fifty and skipper Rishabh Pant's timely innings of 51 runs bolstered the team's score.
