5 unique records held by MS Dhoni in his career

Wicket-keeper to have bowled the most number of times

As we all know, Dhoni fancies his hand with the bowl at times when the side has almost won the match or when there is nothing to lose, or when he just feels like bowling.

Indian fans would have fond memories of Dhoni taking his first international wicket against West Indies when he dismissed Travis Dowlin in 2009.

He also bowled during India’s tour to England in 2011 and got the prized wicket of Kevin Pietersen only to have it turned down after KP reviewed the decision.

Dhoni has bowled 9 times in total in his career followed by William Storer of England who has bowled only four times.
