Staying there is harder than reaching...: MoS VK Singh
Staying there is harder than reaching. While Dhoni was one of the best captains of India, he also played a role as the world's best wicket-keeper batsman, making the Indian team one of the most balanced teams in the world. Thank you Mahi.
Join millions of cricket fans to thank you: Amit Shah
I join millions of cricket fans across the globe to thank MS Dhoni for his unparalleled contributions to Indian Cricket. His cool temperament has turned several hot encounters in India's favour. Under his captaincy, India was crowned World Champions twice in different formats. MS Dhoni has mesmerized millions through his unique style of cricket. I hope he will continue to contribute towards strengthening Indian cricket in the times to come. Best wishes for his future endeavours. World cricket will miss the helicopter shots, Mahi!
