Stats: Most stumpings in international career

With 2 stumpings to his name in the 2nd of the 5-match One Day International series against England, which India won by a massive 133-run margin, MS Dhoni is now on level with Sri Lanka’s Kumar Sangakkara for the most number of stumpings in international cricket: 129 such dismissals in ODIs, Tests and Twenty20 internationals included.

With 3 more matches remaining in the series, this record is most likely to get broken very soon.
