There's little doubt over the fact that Mahendra Singh Dhoni is one of the most-admired cricketers around. Dhoni, who is the only captain to win all three ICC trophies (World T20, World Cup and Champions Trophy), may no longer be leading the Indian cricket team but he continues to command respect and receive love from millions of fans in India and across the globe. 

Now, there's a notable addition to Dhoni's list of admirers. And it is none other than Priya Prakash Varrier - the social media sensation who has bowled over the entire country with her flirtatious 'wink'. 

In an interview to India TV, Priya - who is being dubbed as "India's unofficial national crush" - revealed that Dhoni is her favourite cricketer.
