Everyone’s watching MS Dhoni<\/a> as he gets ready for his 18th IPL <\/a>season, still playing for Chennai Super Kings<\/a> (CSK) at 43! CSK paid him Rs 4 crore to stay, and he’s already led them to five IPL titles. Now, he’s close to setting three big records that might be impossible for anyone else to beat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n People think this might be his last season, so this cricket legend has a real chance to make his mark with these achievements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Right now, Dhoni has the most catches as a wicketkeeper in IPL history. In 264 games, he’s caught 190 balls and stumped 42, with a total of 232 dismissals. He caught 148 of those while playing for Chennai Super Kings, and the rest for Rising Pune Supergiants. Once, he even caught four balls in a single game!<\/p>\n\n\n\n If Dhoni catches or stumps 10 more balls this season, he’ll be the first wicketkeeper to hit 200 in the IPL. It’s a record that could last for years. Of the current players, Rishabh Pant<\/a> is closest, but he’s way behind with only 95 catches from 111 games. Getting to 200 dismissals would just make Dhoni even more of a legend as the best wicketkeeper ever in the league.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dhoni could also become the oldest player to score a half-century in the IPL. Right now, that record belongs to Adam Gilchrist, the former Australian wicketkeeper, who scored 85 not out against Royal Challengers Bangalore<\/a> in 2013 when he was 41 years and 181 days old. If Dhoni scores a half-century this season at 43, he’ll beat Gilchrist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To do it, Dhoni might need to bat higher up the order to get more time at the crease. His last IPL half-century was when he was 40 years and 262 days old against Kolkata Knight Riders<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n**200 Catches as Wicketkeeper**<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
