#5 MS Dhoni (9872 runs for India and 174 runs for Asia XI) set to reach 10,000 runs for India alone in ODI cricket
MS Dhoni has received a lot of criticism in the recent past due to his dogged style of constructing an inning.
But most of the criticisms have been largely illogical as one needs to look upon the situations he's come out to bat in. Dhoni still weaves to be an important part of the Indian team setup, especially in the ODIs where his tactical mind provides a lot of inputs to the team.
Thus, Dhoni is set to be the incumbent wicket-keeper batsman for the Indian team at the much prophesied Asia Cup 2018. Recently having completed 10,000 ODI runs in international cricket, Dhoni is all set to achieve another milestone in ODI cricket.
MS Dhoni needs 128 more runs to complete 10,000 ODI runs for India. Well, you might be thinking that how can this be the case. So, here is the fact. Dhoni has scored 10,046 runs in ODI cricket out of which 174 runs have come for Asia XI in a three-match series against Africa XI in 2007 which Asia XI won 3-0.
Thus, come the Asia Cup 2018, Dhoni will be needing 128 more runs to achieve the 10,000 run mark for India.
