5 astonishing cricket milestones achieved in Madhya Pradesh

#4 India vs South Africa, 2015 – Dhoni masterclass

Dhoni smashed it all around the park on the day

It is almost impossible to recall a game where MS Dhoni was at his best while batting and India lost. This is a combination that rarely—if ever—happened. However, the thing that never happened was MS Dhoni having a great game with both the bat and the gloves and India losing in the process.

Against the Proteas at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore, MS Dhoni led India to a well-made 247 on an extremely difficult batting track. The former India captain made 92* off just 86 balls and helped the team put up a fighting total.

But that wasn’t all. While the spinners took most of the plaudits for dismantling the South African batsmen, Dhoni assisted them by displaying supersonic speed behind the stumps as he registered four stumpings in the game to help India win by 22 runs.
