New Delhi, Feb. 2 -- Former Indian wicketkeeper and two world cup winning skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has long retired from international cricket, however, is still the most popular cricketer in India and abroad. Dhoni's name eclipses those of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Steve Smith, Joe Root, Kane Williamson etc.

Stats wise, he is the only skipper to win three different limited overs ICC tournaments and under his captaincy India won the 2007 World T20, 2011 ODI World Cup and 2013 Champions Trophy.

Surprisingly, the 43-year-old hasn't entered politics yet., despite rumours rumours in the past. Be it due to his IPL career - as he still represents Chennai Super Kings or his love for cricket, Dhoni has kept himself away from politics.

Man...
