IPL | Twitter reacts to Narine dozing at crease as Dhoni delivers stumping masterclass

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Dhoni’s stumping — something the world epitomises with his wicketkeeping skills. Something similar unfolded at Eden Gardens when Kolkata Knight Riders faced Chennai Super Kings, and the crowd was enthralled by Dhoni’s lightning stumping of a lazy Sunil Narine.
On the first ball of the eighth over, Noor Ahmed bowled a googly from over the wicket, targeting middle and leg. Sunil Narine advanced down the pitch, attempting a cross-batted shot but missed it as the ball deflected between his legs and rolled to MS Dhoni. Showing sharp reflexes, Dhoni quickly collected it and broke the stumps. Narine was slow to respond, and he couldn’t get his bat back. The square-leg umpire referred the decision, and the big screen confirmed him out, triggering loud cheers from CSK fans. Social media buzzed with praise for Dhoni’s lightning-fast stumping.
Great one from Dhoni!

Yeah!
In the KKR vs CSK match, MS Dhoni stumped Sunil Narine by collecting the ball from in front of the stumps — a direct violation of ICC's Law 27 (Wicket-keeper's position) and Law 39 (Stumped).@StarSportsIndia #CSKvsKKR | #IPL | #Starsports | #Ask | #MSDhoni𓃵 pic.twitter.com/3PzBM2dMF5
