Dhoni's greatest social media moments

The most decorated Indian Cricket Captain turns 36 today. Let us take a look at some of Mahendra Singh Dhoni's greatest social media moments, from on and off the pitch!

He is known as Captain Cool, and the man who never broke under pressure, instead channeled the pressure to thrive off of it to give the Indian Cricket Team one of their most glorious eras. When it comes to Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s greatest social media moments, there are far too many to jot down, although we did quite a modest job here.

From the most iconic World Cup winning shot in the history of ICC World Cups, to the fastest stumping in Cricket history, he has etched his name in the record books with his match winning knocks, in the hearts of his fans with their love for the man, and in the minds of his rivals with the fear that Mahendra Singh Dhoni commands!

These are five of Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s greatest social media moments that Indian Cricket fans could not help but gush over.

His first triumph as the Captain of the Indian Cricket Team and India's first World Cup in decades.

Remember those long locks? This was the tournament when Dhoni was first handed the reins of a young Indian Cricket team for the T20 World Cup. That turned out well did it not?

Dhoni opted to give the last over to Joginder Sharma, a decision that was immediately questioned, yet Dhoni stood by his decision and Joginder repaid the Captain's faith in him. This is the match that earned him the Captain Cool tag, and he has lived up to it ever since!
