MS Dhoni Takes Spectacular Catch To Dismiss Chandrapaul Hemraj In 3rd ODI
Pune, Oct 27: Veteran wicketkeeper batsman MS Dhoni made the headlines on Friday night after being left out of the upcoming Twenty20 International (T20I) series against the Windies and Australia.
On Saturday, MS Dhoni once again became the talk of the town when he took a spectacular catch, running backwards to dismiss Chandrapaul Hemraj for 15 runs in the third One-Day International (ODI) in Pune. Dhoni took the catch in the sixth over of the match, which was bowled by Jasprit Bumrah.
The BCCI took note of the brilliant piece of commitment shown by Dhoni and said, "diving MS Dhoni, how good was that catch from MSD?"
On Friday, the BCCI excluded Dhoni from the T20I squads to play against the Windies and Australia with youngster Rishabh Pant set to take the gloves.
The selectors said that Dhoni, the 2007 World T20-winning skipper, had been "rested" and India are now looking to fill in the second wicketkeeper's slot.
When asked if Dhoni's career in T20Is is over, chief selector MSK Prasad said, "not yet".
The two keepers in the two T20 squads announced on Friday are Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik.
The three T20s against Australia will get underway from November 21, followed by a four-Test series and three ODIs.
A veteran of 93 T20Is, Dhoni has 1,487 runs in the format at a strike rate of 127.09.

Dalit man beaten to death in MP over land dispute; sarpanch, kin booked
Shivpuri (MP) (PTI): A 30-year-old Dalit man was allegedly beaten to death by the sarpanch and seven others over a land dispute in a village in Madhya Pradesh’s Shivpuri district, an official said on Wednesday.
Narad Jatav was fatally attacked on Tuesday evening after he and his maternal uncle objected to a road created through their land to a hotel belonging to the sarpanch, Padam Dhakad, in Indergarh village, the official said. The accused, including Dhakad's sons and wife, are on the run.
Following the dispute over the road, Narad allegedly removed the water supply line from a common borewell to the hotel. Dhakad and his family then beat him with sticks and killed him, Kotwali police station in-charge Kripal Singh Rathore said.
Jatav’s family protested in the medical college where his body was taken for autopsy, demanding the registration of a first information report (FIR) against the accused, he said.
Later, police pacified them and registered a murder case against the sarpanch and his other family members, including his wife and sons, Rathore said.
The eight accused persons are absconding and efforts are being made to nab them, he added.
Condemning the murder, former chief minister Kamal Nath wrote on X, “A Dalit youth was beaten to death with sticks in Indergarh of Shivpuri. After this murder in broad daylight, it has been proved once again that Dalits are not safe in Madhya Pradesh,” he said.
There is not a single day when an incident of atrocity on Dalits does not occur in the state, said the Congress leader.
“Under the BJP rule, the audacity of bullies is increasing and it has become their habit to oppress the Dalits and tribals,” he wrote on the social media platform.
Nath also demanded special arrangements to ensure the safety of Dalits and tribals in MP.
