Dhoni is very well respected not just in India but also around the cricketing world, where he won hearts of people through his humble and calm demeanour. He also enjoyed a lot of success particularly in white-ball cricket for India around the world, as a player and as a captain winning lots of series for the country.
He scored over 17,000 runs and affected more than 800 dismissals with the gloves in his international career and was known as the best finisher in the game because of his ability to change gears almost at will. There is no doubt that Dhoni would be missed not just by Indian fans but also by cricket fans all around the world.
