As we kick off a brand new week, there’s a buzz in the air for IPL 2025, bringing along some exciting moments. The 30th match is just around the corner, and it’s a big one! We have the Chennai Super Kings gearing up to take on the Lucknow Super Giants. The fans in Lucknow are practically counting down the hours for this showdown.
Big news comes with Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad being sidelined for the rest of the league. The good news is that MS Dhoni, who we all know as Captain Cool, is back at the helm. After a not-so-great return to captaincy before, fans are excited to see him lead the team again. As they prepare to face the Lucknow squad, there are some thrilling personal milestones on the horizon for Dhoni that could really light up the match.
4000 T20 Runs
First up, he only needs 39 more runs to hit the big 4000 T20 runs mark in India. If you’ve followed cricket, you know how incredible Mohali’s sixes and his famous helicopter shot can be. With every swing of the bat, the chance for that vintage Dhoni magic is definitely alive, and fans can’t help but get pumped for what could be yet another epic moment in his legendary career.
50 stumping for CSK
Then there’s his wicketkeeping skills, which are nothing short of fantastic. MS Dhoni’s ability to stump opponents is amazing. Actually, he’s super close to reaching his own milestone of 50 stumpings for the Chennai Super Kings. He only needs one more stumping, and you can bet everyone’s going to be on the edge of their seats waiting for that moment to happen.
200 dismissal for CSK
To add to that excitement, he’s just one dismissal away from hitting the 200 mark in total dismissals for CSK. The way he finishes games and handles things behind the stumps is always a treat for cricket lovers. It’s like he knows how to keep that crowd on their feet and keep the tension high.
150 catches for CSK
And fans will remember that he’s known for his impressive catches too. Right now, he’s just four catches shy of grabbing 150 catches as a wicketkeeper for CSK, which is a remarkable achievement in itself. Over the years, Dhoni has been a cornerstone for the team, and the thought of him hitting that milestone is thrilling.
150 catches in T20 format
Lastly, let’s not forget his stats in T20s across India. He also needs just four more catches to reach the 150 mark in T20s, whether that’s as a keeper or out in the field. Dhoni’s established a legacy that seems unshakeable, and with his sharp cricketing mind, he continues to amaze fans.
So as the CSK and LSG prepare to clash, fans have plenty to look forward to with Dhoni on the field. Not just the game itself, but all these personal milestones that could turn this match into a night to remember. It’s going to be a fantastic one, and you can feel the excitement building!
