Dhoni handles the Indian and foreign media like a pro.
He can now retire a satisfied,fulfilled and respected cricketer....he has achieved great things in his cricket life.
His ambition was always to be in the Indian army. Who knows what is in store for him after retirement?

The end of an era.
You guys should watch the Blockbuster Bollywood biopic, MS Dhoni. Good movie.
I hope Virat declines the ODI captaincy, but I don't see it happening. Maybe they'll offer it to the Indian Marlon Samuels; Rohit Sharma.

An average to slightly above average Test captain.
In ODI's and T20's, probably one of the best.
2017-01-04 16:16:58
In reply to Devin
one of the best finishers in ODI and T20 as well

Absolutely. Perhaps the best, although there is this other guy in the Indian lineup who is making a case. Different type of finishers though.

Dhoni has a good case for being the 2nd best batsman in the history of ODI
Cricket, with a fortnight of daylight behind Virat Kohli..

What's Indian cricket without homage to the seniors and superstars? MS Dhoni understood Indian cricket like no one else, and he understood how to treat its superstars the same way too.
When it was time for one of India's greatest captains to step down from the game, MS Dhoni offered Sourav Ganguly one of the most memorable farewells by asking him to take over captaincy during the final stages of the Test against Australia in Nagpur in 2008.
Ganguly was asked to take over the reins with Australia nine down, and he led the side for a few overs. It was a move that drew great admiration and accolades for Dhoni, but that was only the beginning.
When he was to receive the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Dhoni invited Anil Kumble, who was the India captain at the start of the series but was forced into retirement due to a shoulder injury, onto the stage to jointly receive the trophy.
Such a special reaction to a legend stepping away was once again on view in 2013. MS Dhoni and his team formed a special revolving guard of honour for Indian cricket's greatest hero, with Sachin Tendulkar even breaking down at the very end.
It spoke volumes of Dhoni's humility and awareness. He had not only led India to a win over their rivals, but had also ensured three of Indian cricket's biggest legends got their due farewells.
The perfect goodbyes
