Legendary wicketkeeper MS Dhoni showcased remarkable reflexes as he stumped Mumbai Indians' premier batter Suryakumar Yadav in the ongoing IPL 2024 clash between the arch-rivals in Chennai. Coming at number four, Suryakumar scored 29 runs before Noor Ahmad outfoxed him with a beauty. 

Is SKY's Stumping The Fastest-Ever By MS Dhoni? 

The incident occurred during the eleventh over of MI's innings when Surya was steadily forming a consolidating stand with Tilak Varma. Ace spinner Noor Ahmad did the trick for the Super Kings, bamboozling him with a magnificent delivery. 

However, MS Dhoni stole the limelight with a lightning-quick stumping, dislodging the bails in a flash. As soon as the legendary cricketer executed the dismissal, fans became curious to know if this was his fastest-ever stumping. 

But it's worth mentioning that it's not Dhoni's fastest-ever stumping and he has done faster dismissals than this one. He took 0.12 seconds for today's stumping, while his fastest-ever stumping took only 0.08 seconds when he dislodged the bails to get rid of Keemo Paul. 

Mitchell Marsh's stumping in 0.09 seconds is Dhoni's second fastest, followed by Shubman Gill's dismissal when he took 0.1 seconds to dislodge the bails.
