India’s beast behind the stumps MS Dhoni revolutionised wicket-keeping with his exemplar competence.
Displaying similar skills, a wicketkeeper is being lauded for inflicting two impeccable run-outs during the Nepal T20 league.
Arjun Saud, the wicketkeeper of Biratnagar Super Kings, mirrored Dhoni’s expertise on the field as he executed the run-outs against Janakpur Royals.
Saud’s lighting fast glovework claimed the first run-out as he knocked the stumps while appearing almost in a somersault position.
To avoid giving the opposition batters any chances, Saud executed a second run-out without even looking at the stumps, something Dhoni used to display on the fields.
Check out the video here:
The Janakpur Royals won the match by five wickets but Saud, with his Dhoni-like prowess, won the hearts of cricket fans, especially the desis.
The Nepal T20 league will conclude on January 11 with a total of 34 matches being played during the course of the tournament.
