Cricketers pors in messages to wish MS Dhoni. BCCI

The former India skipper, MS Dhoni stepped into this 37th birthday, and the greetings have been pouring in from all quarters for the India stalwart.

Meanwhile, Dhoni played an important knock on the eve of the auspicious day against England but couldn’t help his team wrap up the series. England turned the table upside down, as they overhaul India’s target of 148 runs. Batting first, India went to class to 150-run mark thanks to Virat Kohli and Dhoni.

Although MS started a bit slow, he picked the gear at the right time to finish on a high. He remained unbeaten on 32 off 24 deliveries including five boundaries. It will give him enough confidence for the matches to come. However, the hosts banked on Alex Hales to chase down the target in the last over of the game.

The maestro also achieved the feat of playing 500 international games. Furthermore, he became the second Indian to do so after Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid.

While Dhoni is still a part of the limited-overs side, he retired from Tests in 2014. Dhoni is also the only captain in the history of cricket to win three ICC trophies.
