First Indian captain to lose 4 consecutive Test series

Under the leadership of MS Dhoni India lost 4 consecutive Test series

Dhoni is the first Indian captain to whitewash Australia in a series which featured more than three Test matches. The feat was more remarkable as the whitewash came after a gap of 43 years

In his career as the captain, he has achieved plenty of triumphs but has also set some dubious records on the way. He became the first Indian captain to lose four consecutive Test series.

In 2013, India went to South Africa to play a two-match Test series under his captaincy and lost the series 0-1. The following year India also lost a two-match series against New Zealand away from home.

In 2014, the Dhoni-led Indian team toured England and lost a five-match Test series 1-3. India went down under to play a four-match test series against Australia and lost that 0-2. Though Dhoni led India in only two matches of that series, he was the official captain of the tour.

He missed the first match due to injury and retired from Test cricket after the third match thus missing the fourth and final match.
