A new Dhoni special, a blind flick to run Narine out

Photo: BCCI New Delhi: Just when you think you have seen all of MS Dhoni, he brings out a rabbit out of his hat to leave everyone gasping for breath. After silencing the critics with his match winning innings against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Dhoni gave a quite reminder about his keeping skills, which more often than not languishes in the backstage.  No, this was not another lightning quick stumping, nor was it a blind throw towards the stumps. Well, it may be described as another variation of the second kind but it certainly was enough to turn heads. In the third over the Kolkata Knight Riders innings, Dhoni guided the ball towards the stumps in a nonchalant manner to send Sunil Narine packing. Narine, who was again living up to his new find role of an opener, was well short of his crease. Thakur standing at short fine leg did his best to quickly release the ball but the throw was slightly off target and it needed a direct hit. So what does Dhoni do? He simply sticks his right hand and guides the ball towards the stumps instead of collecting it. The result? Sunil Narine run out for 16 by Thakur/Dhoni.
