In recognition of MS Dhoni's tremendous contributions to Indian sport and his services to the nation, a statue of him was unveiled in a wax museum in Mysore. A fan's photo of Dhoni's statue went viral on social media on Friday, October 7.

The former India captain's statue did not appear to impress cricket fans, which sparked some humorous Twitter reactions.

While many remarked that the statue reminded them of D Dhenier, some made fun of the statue's sculptors. For those who are unaware, Dhenier was the name given to Dhoni in the well-known computer game "EA Cricket 07."

Here are some of the most hilarious reactions:
