MS Dhoni is well known for his lightning fast reflexes behind the stumps and on Friday, the former Indian skipper once again provided the crucial breakthrough to his side during the Asia Cup 2018 final a✤gainst Bangladesh.
Bangladesh opener Liton Das, who slammed his maiden century, was beaten by a googly from Kuldeep Yadav and Dhoni pulled off his trademark stump🌺ing to get rid of the 23-year-old. It was a big wicket for India as Liton was batting brilliantly and his dismissal was one of the main reasons why Bangladesh were not able to post a 250-plus total.
Dhoni took just 1/6th of a second to whip the bails off and send back Da🌼s packing for 121.
Meanwhile, Twitterati was in awe of MS Dhoni for his brilliant wicketkeeping as he also became the first wicketkeeper to affect 10 stumping🌃s in the Asia Cup history.
Here’s how Twitter reacted:
So it took a lightening ⚡ stumping from Dhoni to get rid of Litan Das. To be fair nobody apart from him 'Lit' the game on fire with the bat for Bangladesh
