    "editor1": "<p><strong>New Delhi, April 27 (CRICKETNMORE):<\/strong> &nbsp;During the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) game against Rajasthan Royals in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) played on April 11, 17-year-old Riyan Parag--who was making his IPL debut--was caught behind by MS Dhoni after he had scored 16 runs at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. CSK went on to win that match by four wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In that match, it was pointed out that Dhoni had first met Riyan when he was just three. A picture of the two had surfaced on social media in which the wicketkeeper-batsman is seen alongside child Riyan.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Now, it has come out that coincidentally it was Dhoni who had stumped Riyan&#39;s father Parag Das in one of the domestic games roughly 19 years ago.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Dhoni, who had made his first-class debut in the 1999-2000 season of the Ranji Trophy for Bihar -- during a game against Assam in an East Zone League -- had stumped Parag in the second innings after a 24-ball 30. Bihar went on to win by 191 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Cricket commentator Harsha Bhogle took to Twitter to come out with this interesting statistic. Bhogle, while pointing this out, wrote &quot;Many years ago, in the 99-00 season of the Ranji Trophy (see the 2nd innings of Assam in this scorecard) http:\/\/www.bcci.tv\/ranji-trophy-1999-00\/match\/60 &hellip;<br \/>\r\nan Assam opener, called Parag Das was stumped by a young keeper called MS Dhoni. Parag Das is Riyan Parag&#39;s father! And MSD is the constant!&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Some user had tweeted this stat tagging Bhogle.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>On April 25, Riyan played a superb knock of a 31-ball 47 to help Royals achieve a stunning victory over Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their IPL fixture.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
