Ms Dhoni is a right-handed batsman and wicket-keeper. Ms Dhoni is one of the number of wicket-keepers who have come through the ranks of junior and India A cricket teams to represent the national team – Parthiv Patel, Ajay Ratra and Dinesh Karthik also followed this route.

Dhoni, referred to as 'Mahi' by his friends, debuted in the Bihar cricket team during the 1998/99 cricket season and was selected to represent India-A for a tour to Kenya in 2004. Along with Gautam Gambhir, Dhoni made multiple centuries against the Pakistan-A team in a tri-nation series and was selected in the Indian national team later in that year.


Dhoni tends to play mostly from the back foot with a pronounced bottom hand grip. He has a very fast hand speed through the ball which often results in the ball racing across the ground. From this initial stance his feet do not show much movement which sometimes results in chasing balls while not coming to the pitch of the ball or to some deliveries catching the inside edge.

The TIME magazine added him in its "Time 100" list of 100 most influential people of 2011.SportsPro has rated MS Dhoni as the 16th most remarkable athelete in the world.

Dhoni, who is famous for this Helicopter shot where, he fully uses the depth of the batting crease and hit the ball with the maximum power swing the ball towards the long on direction.
