Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the calm and composed wicket-keeper batsman from Ranchi, has been the epitome of class, aggression and composure.

He played for India A in 2004 when the team toured Kenya for a tri-series against the hosts and Pakistan A. The tournament was the turning point in M.S Dhoni’s illustrious career as he blasted a couple of centuries against Pakistan A.

The stupendous knocks earned him a place in the Indian national team and he hasn’t looked back since. Currently at the twilight of his career, Dhoni still has plenty to offer for the Men in Blue in International cricket.
