MS Dhoni entered the stage of International Cricket as a big-hitting wicket-keeper batsman but left the Cricketing world as an Ultimate legend of the game. Not only he conquered titles, but finished his career as one of the greatest ever to play the game. Undoubtedly, he is still India's best limited-overs captain of all time. Dhoni helped India reach the peak of Cricket which they were trying to reach for decades. On July 7, 2023, MS Dhoni will turn 42 but before that, we'll have a look at the top 10 greatest moments of him as India's limited overs captain.
MS Dhoni made his ODI debut on 23 December 2004, against Bangladesh in Chittagong. In his first four international innings, Dhoni managed a combined 22 runs. On debut, he was out for a duck. At Vizag, playing in his fifth ODI against Pakistan, he was promoted to No. 3 and blasted 148 off 123 for his maiden international century, filled with 15 fours and four sixes. Dhoni scored his highest limited-overs score against Sri Lanka, an unbeaten 183 off 145 balls, and helped India win the game. The inning was described in Wisden Almanack (2006) as 'Uninhibited, yet anything but crude'. The innings set various records including the highest individual score in ODI cricket in the second innings, a record only broken after seven years by Shane Watson.
He played his first T20I a year later against South Africa. In 2007, he took over the ODI captaincy from Rahul Dravid and was also selected as the T20I captain of India. MS Dhoni has scored 10,773 runs in the ODI format in 297 innings at an average of 50.57 including 10 centuries and 73 half-centuries.
Top 10 greatest moments of MS Dhoni as India's limited overs captain:
2007 World T20, South Africa:
Dhoni took charge of India's limited-overs side. India went into the tournament having played only one T20I till then. After memorable victories against England, South Africa, and Australia, it came down to defending 12 off the final over of the tournament, against Pakistan. Dhoni took a weird but interesting decision to bring medium pacer Joginder Sharma, who helped India win by five runs.
Dhoni's India clinch their first and only ODI series victory in Australia. A tri-series also featuring Sri Lanka, India won the best-of-three final against the hosts and seal victory with a match to spare.
2010 Asia Cup, Sri Lanka:
India won another tri-series tournament under Dhoni. Again, the Men in Blues met the hosts in the final. Dhoni took four catches and a stumping as India thumped Sri Lanka by 81 runs.
2011 World Cup, India:
Twenty-eight years after Kapil Dev's men claimed the biggest title in cricket, MS Dhoni's men lifted it. India were chasing 275 in the final and lost the huge wicket of Sachin early in the game. Gambhir batted at his peak and gave India a perfect stage to chase the total. The captain promoted himself to No. 5 and scored 91 and took India home with an iconic six.
The Final of the 2013 Champions Trophy turned into a t20 match after rain affected the game. India put up only 129. A famous quote was shared on various social media platforms and amongst the fans after that final. "God is not coming to save us," Dhoni tells his team before going to defend their low total. "If you want to win this trophy, we will have to fight it out." India keeps England to 124. Dhoni became the first captain to claim all three ICC trophies: World Cup, World T20, and Champions Trophy.
Despite losing the 2014 World T20 final to Sri Lanka, Dhoni's leadership has always been about resilience and determination to bounce back rather than just a few moments of glory. India dispatched stronger teams such as Pakistan, Australia, and Bangladesh with relative ease and entered the semifinals against South Africa undefeated. During the semifinal, Dhoni's nature as a selfless teammate was on display when he had the chance to finish the match with India needing 1 run from 9 balls, but played three dot balls to give the strike back to Virat Kohli for a deserved finish. However, the second T20 crown eluded India when they lost to a superior Sri Lankan team in the final.
2016 Australia v India T20I series:
India were down 4-0 in the five-match ODI series in Australia but Dhoni's team came back strongly in the T20s and won it b 3-0. An important T20I series victory against a powerhouse nation as it was also a World T20 year.
2016 Asia Cup, Bangladesh:
It was the first time the tournament featured T20s instead of ODIs. India had a target of 121 in 15 overs by Bangladesh in the final, and Dhoni finishes it off with 20 not out of 7.
2016 World T20, India:
One of the most interesting finishes to a game of cricket one could imagine. After hitting consecutive fours, Bangladesh needed two to win off three balls to knock India out of the tournament. They had three wickets in hand and the experienced Mushfiqur and Mahmadullah were batting. Hardik Pandya was bowling and three wickets came in three balls. The last one came from Dhoni when he completed a run-out which helped the Men in Blues win by one run.
2016 India v New Zealand:
Dhoni finished his captaincy career on a high note with a victory against New Zealand at home. The five-match series was level at 2-2 going into the last game. India sealed it 3-2 by bowling the visitors out for 79.
Indian men's cricket team with seven ICC trophies are the second most successful team in men's cricket history. Australia with ten trophies lead the list of teams with the most ICC trophies.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) conducts different cricket events and tournaments throughout the year. ICC tournaments are the biggest platforms in the game of cricket, where the top teams contest against each other for championship podiums.
Contributing to the team on a big stage like this will always be remembered for a long time. The ODI World Cup is conducted once every four years, whereas the Men's T20 World Cup is played every two years. The ICC Champions Trophy is where only the top 8 teams compete in each finals tournament.
Last but not least, the World Test Championship is played over two years. This article thoroughly talks about the men's cricketing teams that have won ICC trophies at some point in time. Let's take a look at the teams with the most ICC Trophies.
Australia's sheer dominance over other cricketing teams is nothing new. For decades, Australia has been executing out-of-ordinary performances and winning trophies for the country. Out of all the cricketing countries, Australia has the most ICC trophies.
Till now the Aussies won 10 ICC trophies. Australia is the only team to win 6 ICC World Cups. The most successful team in the Cricket World Cup clinched the trophy in 1987, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2015, and 2023. Interestingly Australia made a record of being the only team to win the trophy in all the countries that hosted the World Cup.
Australia won the ICC Champions Trophy twice in 2006 and 2009 against West Indies and New Zealand respectively. Lastly, Australia lifted their first-ever ICC T20 World Cup trophy after defeating New Zealand in the 2021 T20 World Cup. They claimed the ICC World Test Championship after defeating India at the Oval by a huge margin of 209 runs.
India sits in the second position on this prestigious list of most ICC Trophies by any team. India won their first-ever ICC World Cup in 1983 under the captaincy of Kapil Dev. Later again 28 years, the men in blue won the World Cup for the second time under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni in 2011.
The Indian men's cricket team also reached the semifinals four times in 1987, 1996, 2015, and 2019. Meantime, they lost in two finals in 2003 and 2023.
The men in blue won the Champions Trophy thrice. First, in 2002, both the finalists India and Sri Lanka were declared the co-champions of the 2002 Champions Trophy. In the 2013 edition, India defeated England by 5 runs and won the Champions Trophy for the second time in Birmingham. Their latest triumph came via Champions Trophy 2025, as they defeated New Zealand by four wickets in Dubai in the final.
Lastly, India won the inaugural edition of the ICC T20 World Cup in 2007 after defeating Pakistan in Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg. In the 2024 T20 World Cup, India defeated South Africa by 7 runs to lift the trophy for the second time.
Next on this list is West Indies with a total of 5 ICC trophies. The first-ever ICC World Cup final was won by West Indies in 1975. West Indies once again continued their reign in the next edition of the World Cup as well, in 1979. The Caribbean team also won the Champions Trophy in 2004. Lastly, West Indies became the winner of the ICC T20 World Cup twice; once against Sri Lanka in 2012 and the other time against England in 2016.
England | 3

Till 2010, the England team has not had any ICC Tournament. But, it was in 2010, when they won their first ICC T20 World Cup against arch-rival Australia. Craig Kieswetter guided them home in the final for their first-ever ICC Trophy. Post that, they have been a phenomenal white-ball team and won two ICC World Cups since then.
In 2019, they won their first ICC Men's ODI World Cup as Ben Stokes made all the difference in the final against England in a match where boundary count helped England to win the World Cup.
England's latest ICC Trophy triumph came under Jos Buttler as they became the first-ever team in Cricket history to hold the ODI and T20 World Cup at the same time. Jos Buttler and company won the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022 as Sam Curran won the player of the tournament after taking 13 wickets with the ball. Curran also was the player of the match in the final as well.
Pakistan | 3
Pakistan sits in the fourth position on the list of most ICC Trophy wins by any team with 3 ICC trophies. The first-ever ICC trophy won by Pakistan was during the 1992 cricket World Cup. Pakistan defeated England in the final and won by 22 runs.
The next ICC trophy won by Pakistan was in the 2009 T20 World Cup where they beat Sri Lanka in the final and won the title by 8 wickets. The most recent and last ICC win of Pakistan is the 2017 Champions Trophy where they defeated India by 180 runs.
With 3 ICC trophies, Sri Lanka sits in 5th position on this list. Sri Lanka won their first-ever ICC World Cup in 1996 where they played against Australia in the final hosted in Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore. They went ahead to win their next ICC trophy in the 2002 Champions Trophy. The winner of the tournament is actually both India and Sri Lanka as both the finalist teams were declared as co-champions.
The last time Sri Lanka won an ICC Trophy was when they defeated India in the 2014 T20 World Cup hosted in Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium Dhaka.
The New Zealand cricket team has won a total of 2 ICC trophies since they started competing in tournaments conducted by ICC. The Kiwis won their first-ever ICC Trophy in the 2000 Champions Trophy. Nairobi hosted the final of New Zealand vs India where New Zealand won the match by 4 wickets.
The next ICC Trophy won by the Kiwis was the ICC World Test Championship. Once again, New Zealand played against India in the final of an ICC event and clinched the trophy in the inaugural edition of the World Test Championship final.
South Africa have broken the jinx and finally won an ICC trophy after 27 years, only their second ICC title after beating Australia by five wickets at the iconic Lord's Cricket Ground to become World Test champions. Chasing 282 runs to win, Aiden Markram registered his eighth Test century and played one of the most important knocks of his career with 136 runs to guide the Proteas to a historic win.
Meanwhile, in the 1998 ICC Champions Trophy hosted in Bangladesh, South Africa beat West Indies in the final to win their first ICC title. Jacques Kallis was exceptional and contributed the most to the team reaching and winning the final and was awarded the player of the tournament. He hit a century and picked up a five-wicket haul as well.
Note: The stats include shared trophies. The article was first written by Shreya Ghosh and then got edited by Abishek Goswami.
Indian cricket team head coach Gautam Gambhir has suddenly returned to India, citing a family emergency as the reason. A BCCI source has given this information to news agency PTI.
The source said that Gambhir had to return to take care of his mother, who has been admitted to a hospital in New Delhi due to health complications. The Shubman Gill-led Indian Test team is in England to play a five-match IND vs ENG series, starting June 20 in Leeds.
In Gambhir's absence, assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate will oversee the team during the four-day intra-squad match between India and India A starting from Friday. He will be assisted by other coaching staff like bowling coach Morne Morkel and batting coach Shitanshu Kotak. If all goes well at home, Gambhir is expected to return to England within a week.
Indian team would like to test its preparations
The Indian team will play intra-squad matches to finalise its preparations ahead of the IND vs ENG five-match Test series. India A played two unofficial Test matches against England Lions and the batsmen showed their prowess in them. Such matches are important for the preparation of the team before any series. India has opted to play this match in an empty stadium so that the opposing team does not get a clue of their strategy.
All eyes will be on Kuldeep-Jadeja
In this match, the performance of Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja will be watched and an interesting competition is expected between these two to make a place in the final eleven of the Indian Test team.
India's bowling coach Morne Morkel had said on Wednesday that the match is crucial for India's preparation as it is difficult to develop the ability to bowl and field 90 overs in a day through normal practice sessions. This match will give the Indian team management a good opportunity to assess its players, especially the bowlers, in match situations.
This will help ensure that the bowlers, be it spinners or pacers, are in the required rhythm in the actual match. Gambhir will have to do some brainstorming to pick the only specialist spinner for Headingley.
Jadeja has a good batting record abroad but if India has to take 20 wickets then Kuldeep's role will become important. Kuldeep can prove to be a good partner of fast bowler Jaspreet Bumrah in the conditions here. Jadeja vs Kuldeep is the biggest puzzle for the playing XI that the team management will have to solve.
Eyes will be on fast bowlers as well
Similarly, this match will give the team management and captain Shubman Gill a chance to see which ball works better in these conditions - Akash Deep's full length or Prasidh Krishna's back of the length. Bumrah, who will be playing a red ball match after six months, will get a chance to bowl multiple spells and test his fitness. He has played only IPL since returning from a lower back injury.
Till now, 11 Indian cricketers have been inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame. Former Indian captain and legend MS Dhoni became the latest Indian to be inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame list.
Along with MS Dhoni, Aussie great Matthew Hayden, South African legend Hashim Amla, former South African captain Graeme Smith, former Kiwi leader Daniel Vettori, and former Pakistan captain Sana Mir and English legend Sarah Taylor were also inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame 2025.
