The Indian team under the leadership of MS Dhoni was looking unstoppable in 2013 as they traveled to England for the Champions Trophy. India had fielded a new opening pair in Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan and it proved to be fruitful as the team won all of its group stage matches, beating South Africa, the West Indies and then arch-rivals Pakistan. In the semis, India defeated Sri Lanka in a one-sided semi-final and then faced England in the finals.

MS Dhoni became the first captain to win all the three ICC trophies on offer and is the only one to do so till now.
