#5 MS Dhoni

The whole world was glued to their television sets when Mahendra Singh Dhoni lofted Nuwan Kulasekara into the stands to lift the 2011 cricket World Cup for India. The great Sunil Gavaskar had said,” When I die, the last thing I want to see is the six that Dhoni hit in the 2011 World Cup final.”

It’s been five years since the incident and Dhoni continues to entertain. The Indian limited overs captain is still one of the best finishers around the globe even though the tag has come under a few questions over the last few months. He is one of those batsmen who like taking on challenges and smacking bowlers out of the ground. He can be ungainly at times but it is rest assured if Dhoni middles the ball it is going to be a catch for the crowd. He is quite well known for the helicopter shot which he started playing from his early days which involved tennis ball cricket.From 441 games Dhoni has hit 304 sixes and scored 14906 international runs.
