Dhoni's 2016 Run-Out Inspires JSK's SA20 Win: Faf Du Plessis Reveals Strategy

  • JSK captain Faf du Plessis drew inspiration from MS Dhoni's 2016 T20 World Cup run-out during a dramatic SA20 match.
  • With 1 run needed off the last ball, Donovan Ferreira removed a glove, and Wiaan Mulder bowled a cutter, leading to a crucial run-out by Ferreira.
  • The run-out forced a Super Over against Durban’s Super Giants, which Johannesburg Super Kings eventually won.
  • Du Plessis recalled Dhoni's run-out of Mustafizur Rahman in 2016, prompting him to instruct Mulder to bowl a similar delivery.
  • Ferreira had an exceptional all-round performance, scoring 33 off 10, taking 1 wicket for 24 runs, and executing the match-saving run-out.

Why It Matters: Faf du Plessis used MS Dhoni's past run-out strategy to guide JSK to a dramatic SA20 Super Over victory.
