Sheldon Jackson, the 35-year-old Kolkata Knight Riders wicket-keeper, made everyone remember legendary keeper MS Dhoni as he did a superb stumping to dismiss Robin Uthappa in the ongoing first IPL 2022 match against Chennai Super Kings at the Wankhede Stadium. The lightning-fast stumping by Jackson grabbed all the limelight and made everyone jump out of their seats.
Sheldon Jackson impressed one and all with his stunning keeping effort in match number 1 itself as he showed the IPL world what they’ve got in him. The incident took place on the bowling of Varun Chakravarthy when Jackson quickly collected the ball wide down the leg-side.
