MS Dhoni turned 41 on Thursday and wishes are pouring in on social media for the former India captain and legendary cricketer. Dhoni holds a special place in the hearts of Indian cricket fans and that of almost every player he has played with or against. One place where Dhoni is much more than just a cricketer or captain is his Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Chennai Super Kings.
CSK posted a video on its Twitter handle on Thursday expressing wishes from its players for the “Thala”.
West Indian all-rounder Dwayne Bravo was the main character of the video when he sang a song that featured Dhoni’s performance. Other players such as Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Dwayne Pretorius, Chris Jordan, Robin Uthappa and several youngsters wished Dhoni on his birthday in the video.
