Making MS Dhoni proud! Arjun Saud inflicts 2 no-look runouts in the same over in MSD style: When it comes to astounding deeds behind the stumps, there is no competition for the great Mahendra Singh Dhoni. The former Indian skipper made some spectacular stumpings and popularised the ‘no-look’ runout. It requires him to hit the stumps while looking in the opposite direction.
Now, following in his footsteps, a Nepal wicketkeeper has also been successful in producing two run-outs, and that too within the same match. Similar to MS Dhoni of the Chennai Super Kings, Arjun Saud of the Biratnagar Super Kings absolutely amazed everyone with two stunning runouts.
Even though Janakpur Royals defeated Biratnagar Super Kings on Monday (December 26) in the ongoing Nepal T20 League, wicketkeeper Arjun Saud’s heroics have won everyone’s hearts.
Arjun Saud, the wicketkeeper, was in superhuman form behind the stumps in the ongoing Nepal T20 League. Sundeep Jora was run out by Arjun Saud in the ninth over of the game after throwing the ball to the stumps while in the air in a somersault position.
Arjun Saud struck again two balls later when he collected a throw from the deep and, in typical MS Dhoni manner, almost immediately threw the ball straight to the stumps without even looking at them. Rajesh Pulami was the unfortunate batsman who was on the receiving end of the run-out.
Arjun Saud’s efforts behind the stumps remained ineffective as the Biratnagar Super Kings lost the match by a margin of 5 wickets. While batting first, the Super Kings lost all 10 of their wickets while posting a total of 140 that was hardly competitive. Sikandar Raza led the team in scoring with a powerful 38 from 18 balls. The Janakpur Royals’ primary bowler, Lalit Rajbanshi, took 5 wickets for just 8 runs.
The Royals then chased down the target losing just 5 wickets in the allotted 20 overs. Chadwick Walton scored the highest 69 runs in 55 balls for the team.
