400 ODI dismissals for MS Dhoni: tracing the landmark

#100 Owais Shah: Headingley, 2007

Dhoni's 100th dismissal came on the tour of England in 2007 at Headingley, where he affected 6 of them

Brief Scores: India 324/6 in 50 overs (Yuvraj 72, Tendulkar 71; Collingwood 1/48) beat England 242/8 in 39 overs (Collingwood 91*, Prior 46; Ganguly 2/26) by 38 runs (D/L method)

Three years after having established himself as the country's best wicketkeeper-batsman, Dhoni reached the triple-figure mark on the tour of England in 2007. In the fifth ODI of the series at Headingley, Dhoni affected as many as six dismissals behind the stumps – still his personal best as well as the ODI record for an Indian wicket-keeper. He entered the game with 95 dismissals to his credit but left with 101, his hundredth being England's number six Owais Shah.

Off-spinner Ramesh Powar spun Shah out in his very first over of the match, as the latter assumed the ball would turn but only a thin edge off one that did not as Dhoni's fifth catch of the match took him to a hundred overall in the format.

In the end, India won a rain-affected match comfortably via the D/L method to strike back in the seven-match series which eventually ended 4-3 in England's favour.
