MS Dhoni has tasted success in the limited overs format like no other captain or player. As a batsman, Dhoni has taken the art of ODI batting just like fish to water. He still holds the record of being the fastest to No:1 in the ICC ODI rankings after just 42 innings.

With India's middle order raw and in doubts, the huge calming presence of Dhoni holds the key for India. He has attacked the spinners from the onset in the last 18 months which has silenced his critics.

His wicket-keeping has bettered with time as some of his stumpings in recent years are unbelievably quick.

His presence behind the stumps gives a huge boost to the wrist spinning duo of Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav.

MSD will get a thunderous reception every time he steps on to the field in the upcoming World Cup. His fans are hoping to see him lift the cup for one final time.
