WATCH | 'Jai Dhoni': Twitter hails MS Dhoni for his 100th stumping

Mahendra Singh Dhoni became the first wicket keeper to effect 100 stumpings in one-day internationals on Sunday, when he whipped off the bails to remove Akila Dananjaya off leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal's bowling. He also surpassed Kumar Sangakkar to become the wicket keeper with highest number of stumpings in ODI. Everbody joined in to hail this magical achivement of the former Indian skipper. Twitter was flooded with congratulatory messages and #Dhoni100 was one of the trends.

Leading the applause on twitter was the Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar himself, who wrote, "Who said lightning doesn't strike twice? Today it did for the 100th time! Well done, @msdhoni! Keep them coming"

Here are some of the tweets celebrating Dhoni's world record.   

When he started, Wicketkeeping was his weaker suit...he'll finish as the best wicketkeeper of his generation. Dhoni-G faster than 3G-4G.
