MS Dhoni executed exceptional wicketkeeping skills during the ongoing game between Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals while running Ashutosh Sharma out in the final over of the tourists' innings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday, April 5.

Ashutosh inside-edged an inswinging yorker to the on-side off Matheesha Pathirana where Ravindra Jadeja was quick to get to the ball and release it. The flat throw caught the batter well short. Immediately after Dhoni collected the throw, he didn't waste any time to catch Ashutosh way short of the crease.
