India's most successful captain MS Dhoni resigned from captaincy in the limited overs format last week. Dhoni, however, captained the India A team for their match against England XI for, almost certainly, his last match as an International captain. The stadium was full and almost every die-hard Indian cricket fan was glued to the television sets. What struck the Twitterati though was not just Dhoni's last match as captain, but also the return of the golden Dhoni, as he scored 23 runs off the last over and ended the innings at 68 runs with 8 fours and 2 sixes, and amid all this, a fan running on to touch the feet of Dhoni.
Now it is the third time! Every match a landmark in Indian cricket!
Twice Dhoni and Yuvraj batted together at CCI.
