Captain cool

  



MAHENDRA SINGH DHONI THE ICE MAN OF INDIA

I thought it is the right moment for me to write about the person who has the coolest mind as captain in the cricketing world none other than our very own Indian captain Mahendra singh Dhoni,who has played the game in the right spirit and flair. Now people have started asking the question as to when he is going to retire etc,but just remember this my friends that if u can stand by him during his good days why not we stand with him during his tough times as well.So what is expected from a man of his standards is that he must be able to face the situation with ease not with pressure. 

Afterall the world cup which we dreamt of from many years was won and given to us by our very own captain cool Dhoni,he won us both the t20 world cup format as well as the 50 over world cup as well,he took us to the peak of the test rankings in the world under his captaincy.All the great players in the world have admired his captaincy and the way he handles pressure.

                                   
Dhoni has been a huge success ever since he started playing international cricket.He was appreciated for playing a wonderful knock in the world cup final match in 2011.The captain cool has led the team to many first under his captaincy. Dhoni led Team India to No. 1 in the ICC Test Rankings for the first time in December 2009 and also closed the gap with Australia in one-dayers after winning the coveted 2011 Cricket World Cup. Dhoni started his captaincy career with the shortest format of the game and immediately led an inexperienced India Twenty20 squad to the inaugural ICC World Twenty20 victory in South Africa in September 2007. Soon after returning victorious in the World Twenty20, he was made the India's one-day international captain for the seven-match ODI series against Australia in September 2007. After serving the team as vice-captain for a while, Dhoni was made full-time Test captain of India during the fourth Test against Australia at Nagpur in November 2008 replacing Anil Kumble, who announced his retirement after the third Test. Dhoni made his mark in the international cricket soon after his ODI debut in December 2004 against Bangladesh. He scored a match-winning 148 against Pakistan in Vishakapatnam off 123 balls in his fifth ODI and announced his arrival in the international arena. Dhoni made his Test debut against Sri Lanka in December 2005. Similar to his one-day career, he slammed his maiden century (148) against Pakistan in 2006. His maiden ton came off 93 balls and is the fastest hundred scored by an Indian wicket-keeper.
