Under his captaincy, India topped the Test rankings for 18 months from December 2009. The team won the 50-over World Cup in 2011 and the T20 World Cup in 2007 under his captaincy.
Dhoni's journey is one of the most inspiring stories.
Dhoni has had one of the most inspiring journeys in the history of cricket. After working as a ticket collector at a railway station, he also became India's biggest trophy collector and captained the team to the ICC T20 World Cup 2007, ICC Cricket World Cup 2011, and ICC Champions Trophy 2013. He made his international debut in 2004 and made a name for himself as a power hitter. However, over time, he molded himself into a finisher. He was adept at batting aggressively at the time as well as adapting himself according to the situation.
