WATCH: Dhoni's 'moment of brilliance' against New Zealand
Kiwi spinner Ish Sodhi fired a flat and wide delivery outside off to surprise Dhoni. The experienced wicketkeeper-batsman who first shimmied down later realized that it was out of reach and allowed his bottom-hand go and glide it to point for a single.
Former Indian captain MS Dhoni keeps on coming up with moments of brilliance as a keeper during crucial moments of the game. The world cup winning captain yet again proved why he is still one of the most significant middle-order batsman in the current Indian team.
In the 16th over of the Indian innings, Kiwi spinner Ish Sodhi fired a flat and wide delivery outside off to surprise Dhoni. The experienced wicketkeeper-batsman who first shimmied down later realized that it was out of reach and allowed his bottom-hand go and glide it to point for a single.
