6. CRICKET
Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of eleven players on a cricket field, at the center of which is a rectangular 22-yard-long pitch
with a wicket (a set of three wooden stumps) sited at each end. One team, designated the batting team, attempts to score as many runs as possible, whilst
their opponents field. Each phase of play is called an innings. After either ten batsmen have been dismissed or a fixed number of overs have been
completed, the innings ends and the two teams then swap roles. The winning team is the one that scores the most runs, including any extras gained,
during their one or two innings.
Although cricket's origins are uncertain, it is first recorded in south-east England in the 16th century. It spread globally with the expansion of the British
Empire, leading to the first international matches in the mid-19th century. ICC, the game's governing body, has over 100 members, ten of which are full
members who play Test cricket. The sport is followed primarily in Australasia, Britain, the Indian subcontinent, southern Africa and the West Indies.
Women's cricket, which is organised and played separately, has also achieved international standard.
7. About MS Dhoni
Mahendra Singh Dhoni commonly known as MS Dhoni; born 7 July 1981) is an Indian cricketer
who captained the Indian team in limited-overs formats from 2007 to 2016 and in Test cricket
from 2008 to 2014. An attacking right-handed middle-order batsman and wicket-keeper, he is
widely regarded as one of the greatest finishers in limited-overs cricket. He made his One Day
International (ODI) debut in December 2004 against Bangladesh, and played his first Test a year
later against Sri Lanka.
Dhoni holds numerous captaincy records such as most wins by an Indian captain in Tests and
ODIs, and most back-to-back wins by an Indian captain in ODIs. He took over the ODI
captaincy from Rahul Dravid in 2007 and led the team to its first-ever bilateral ODI series wins
in Sri Lanka and New Zealand.
8. Under his captaincy, India won the 2007 ICC World Twenty20, the CB Series of 2007–08, the 2010 Asia Cup, the 2011 ICC
Cricket World Cup and the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy. In the final of the 2011 World Cup, Dhoni scored 91 not out off 79
balls handing India the victory for which he was awarded the Man of the Match. In June 2013, when India defeated England in the
final of the Champions Trophy in England, Dhoni became the first captain to win all three ICC limited-overs trophies (World
Cup, Champions Trophy and the World Twenty20). After taking up the Test captaincy in 2008, he led the team to series wins in
New Zealand and West Indies, and the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in 2008, 2010 and 2013. In 2009, Dhoni also led the Indian team
to number one position for the first time in the ICC Test rankings. In 2013, under his captaincy, India became the first team in
more than 40 years to whitewash Australia in a Test series. In the Indian Premier League, he captained the Chennai Super Kings
to victory at the 2010 and 2011 seasons, along with wins in the 2010 and 2014 editions of Champions League Twenty20. He
announced his retirement from Tests on 30 December 2014.
Dhoni holds the post of Vice-President of India Cements Ltd., after resigning from Air India. India Cements is the owner of the
IPL team Chennai Super Kings, and Dhoni has been its captain since the first IPL season. Dhoni is the co-owner of Indian Super
League team Chennaiyin FC.
9. Dhoni has been the recipient of many awards, including the ICC ODI Player of the Year
award in 2008 and 2009 (the first player to win the award twice), the Rajiv Gandhi Khel
Ratna award in 2007 and the Padma Shri, India's fourth highest civilian honour, in 2009.
He was named as the captain of ICC World Test XI and ICC World ODI XI teams for
2009. The Indian Territorial Army conferred the honorary rank of Lieutenant Colonel to
Dhoni on 1 November 2011. He is the second Indian cricketer after Kapil Dev to have
received this honour. In 2011, Time magazine included Dhoni in its annual Time 100 list as
one of the "Most Influential People in the World."In 2012, SportsPro rated Dhoni as the
sixteenth most marketable athlete in the world. In June 2015, Forbes ranked Dhoni at 23rd
in the list of highest paid athletes in the world, estimating his earnings at US$31 million. In
2016, a biopic M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story was made on him.
10. Early life and background
Dhoni was born in Ranchi, Bihar (now in Jharkhand), and he identifies as being a Rajput. His paternal village Lvali is in
the Lamgarha block of the Almora District of Uttarakhand. Dhoni's parents, moved from Uttarakhand to Ranchi where his
father Pan Singh worked in junior management positions in MECON. Dhoni has a sister Jayanti Gupta and a brother
Narendra Singh Dhoni. Dhoni is a fan of Adam Gilchrist, and his childhood idols were cricket teammate Sachin
Tendulkar, Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan and singer Lata Mangeshkar.
Dhoni studied at DAV Jawahar Vidya Mandir, Shyamali, Ranchi, Jharkhand where he initially excelled in badminton and
football and was selected at district and club level in these sports. Dhoni was a goalkeeper for his football team and was
sent to play cricket for a local cricket club by his football coach. Though he had not played cricket, Dhoni impressed with
his wicket-keeping skills and became the regular wicketkeeper at the Commando cricket club (1995–1998). Based on his
performance at club cricket, he was picked for the 1997/98 season Vinoo Mankad Trophy Under-16 Championship and he
performed well.
11. Dhoni focused on cricket after his 10th standard. Dhoni was a
Travelling Ticket Examiner (TTE) at Kharagpur railway station
from 2001 to 2003, under South Eastern Railway in Midnapore
(W), a district in West Bengal. His colleagues remember him as
a very honest, straightforward employee of the Indian Railways.
But he also had a mischievous side to his personality. Once,
while staying at the railway quarters, Dhoni and a couple of his
friends covered themselves in white bedsheets and walked
around in the complex late in the night. The night guards were
fooled into believing that there were ghosts moving around in
the complex. The story made big news on the next day.
12. Personal life
Dhoni married Sakshi Singh Rawat, his schoolmate in DAV Jawahar Vidya
Mandir, Shyamali.[108] a native of Dehradun, Uttarakhand, on 4 July
2010. At the time of their marriage, she was studying hotel management
and was working as a trainee at the Taj Bengal, Kolkata. After the
retirement of Sakshi's father from his tea growing business, their family
shifted to their native place, Dehradun.
The wedding took place one day after the couple got engaged. According
to Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu, a close friend of Dhoni, the wedding
was planned for months and was not a spur of the moment decision.
Dhoni became father on 6 February 2015 to a baby girl named Ziva.
13. Early career
Junior cricket in Bihar
In 1998 Dhoni was selected by Deval Sahay to play for the Central Coal Fields Limited (CCL) team.[28] Till 1998 Dhoni, who was in class 12th in school, had played
only school cricket and club cricket and no professional cricket. Deval Sahay impressed by his hard hitting shots and dedication, used his contacts in Bihar Cricket
Association to push for his selection in the Bihar team.[30] Deval Sahay, an ex Bihar Cricket Association Vice-President, was the Ranchi District Cricket President at
that time and was instrumental in pushing Dhoni to the big stage of Ranchi team, junior Bihar cricket team and eventually senior Bihar Ranji Team for the 1999-2000
season. Dhoni was not picked for the East Zone U-19 squad (CK Nayudu Trophy) or Rest of India squad (MA Chidambaram Trophy and Vinoo Mankad Trophy).
Bihar U-19 cricket team advanced to the finals of the 1999–2000 Cooch Behar Trophy where Dhoni made 84 to help Bihar post a total of 357.[31] Bihar's efforts were
dwarfed by Punjab U-19s' 839 with Dhoni's future national squad teammate Yuvraj Singh making 358.[32] Dhoni's contribution in the tournament included 488 runs
(9 matches, 12 innings), 5 fifties, 17 catches and 7 stumpings.[33] Dhoni made it to the East Zone U-19 squad for the CK Nayudu trophy but scored only 97 runs in
four matches as East Zone lost all four matches and finished last in the tourname.
14. Bihar cricket team
Dhoni made his Ranji Trophy debut for Bihar in the 1999–2000 season as an eighteen-year-old. He made a
half century in his debut match scoring 68* in the second innings against Assam cricket team. Dhoni finished
the season with 283 runs in 5 matches. Dhoni scored his maiden first-class century while playing
for Bihar against Bengal in the 2000/01 season in a losing cause. Apart from this century, his performance in
the 2000/01 season did not include another score over fifty and in the 2001/02 season he scored just five fifties
in four Ranji matches
Jharkhand cricket team
Dhoni's performance in the 2002–03 season included three half-centuries in the Ranji Trophy and a couple of
half-centuries in the Deodhar Trophy as he started gaining recognition for his lower-order contribution as
well as hard-hitting batting style. In the 2003/04 season, Dhoni scored a century (128*) against Assam in the
first match of the Ranji ODI tournament. Dhoni was part of the East Zone squad that won the Deodar
Trophy 2003-2004 seasonand contributed with 244 runs in 4 math including a century (114) against Central
zone.
15. India a team
He was recognized for his efforts in the 2003/04 season, especially in the One Day format and was
picked for the India A squad for a tour of Zimbabwe and Kenya. Against the Zimbabwe XI
in Harare Sports Club, Dhoni had his best wicket-keeping effort with 7 catches and 4 stumpings in
the match. In the tri-nation tournament involving Kenya, India A and Pakistan A, Dhoni helped
India A chase down their target of 223 against Pakistan A with a half-century. Continuing his good
performance, he scored back to back centuries – 120 and 119* against the same team. Dhoni
scored 362 runs in 6 innings at an average of 72.40 and his performance in the series received
attention from the then Indian captain Sourav Ganguly and Ravi Shastri amongst others. However,
the India A team coach Sandeep Patil recommended Dinesh Karthik for a place in the Indian
squad as wicket-keeper/batsman.
16. ODI CAREER
The Indian ODI team in the early 2000s saw Rahul Dravid as the wicket-keeper to ensure that the wicket-keeper spot didn't
lack in batting talent.[50] The team also saw the entry of wicket-keeper/batsmen from the junior ranks with talents like
Parthiv Patel and Dinesh Karthik (both India U-19 captains) named in the Test squads. With Dhoni making a mark in the
India A squad, he was picked in the ODI squad for the Bangladesh tour in 2004/05.Dhoni did not have a great start to his
ODI career, getting run out for a duck on debuting spite of an average series against Bangladesh). Sri Lanka had set India a
target of 299 after a Kumar Sangakkara century and, in reply, India lost Tendulkar early. Dhoni was promoted to accelerate
the scoring and ended the game with an unbeaten 183 off 145 balls, winning the game for India. The innings was described in
Wisden Almanack (2006) as 'Uninhibited, yet anything but crude'.[57] The innings set various records including the highest
individual score in ODI cricket in the second innings,a record that still stands. Dhoni ended the series with the highest run
aggregate (346)[59] and was awarded the Man of the Series award for his efforts. In December 2005, Dhoni was rewarded a B-
grade contract by the BCCI.
17. Dhoni topped the ICC ODI Batsman rankings for several months in 2009. Michael Hussey from Australia
replaced him at the top spot at the beginning of 2010.Dhoni had an excellent year in ODIs in 2009 scoring 1198
runs in just 24 innings at an astonishing average of 70.43. Dhoni was also the joint top-scorer in ODIs in 2009
along with Ricky Ponting, but the latter having played in 30 innings. On 12 February 2012, Dhoni made an
unbeaten 44 to guide India to their first win over Australia at Adelaide. In the final over, he hit a monstrous six
which traveled 112 meters off the bowling of Clint McKay. During the post-match presentation, he described this
six as more important than the one he hit during the ICC World Cup final in 2011.In November 2013, Dhoni
became the second India batsman after Sachin Tendulkar to aggregate 1,000 or more ODI-runs against Australia.
Dhoni stepped down as captain of India in the limited over formats in January 2017, just ahead of the ODI series
at home against England. In the second game of the series, he scored 134 off 122 balls, that included a 256-run
partnership for the fourth wicket along with Yuvraj Singh. The hundred, his tenth in ODIs, was his first in over
three years.
18. Test career
Following his good one-day performance against Sri Lanka, Dhoni replaced Dinesh Karthik in December 2005
as the Indian Test wicket-keeper. Dhoni scored 30 runs in his debut match that was marred by rain. Dhoni
came to the crease when the team was struggling at 109/5 and as wickets kept falling around him, he played an
aggressive innings and was the last man dismissed. Dhoni made his maiden half-century in the second Test and
his quick scoring rate (half century came off 51 balls) aided India to set a target of 436 and the Sri Lankans
were bowled out for 247.
India toured Pakistan in January–February 2006 and Dhoni scored his maiden century in the second Test at
Faisalabad. India was left in a tight spot as Dhoni was joined by Irfan Pathan with the team still 107 away from
avoiding a follow-on. Dhoni played his typical aggressive innings as he brought up his maiden Test hundred in
just 93 balls after scoring the first fifty in just 34 deliveries.
19. Dhoni scored two centuries in Sri Lanka's tour of India in 2009, a series of three
matches in which he led India to a 2–0 victory. With this feat, India soared up to
the number one position in Test cricket for the first time in history. India scored
726–9 (decl) in the third match of this series, which was their highest Test total
then.
He played his last series in the 2014–15 season in India's tour of Australia
captaining India in the second and third tests; losing the second and drawing the
third, trailing the series 2–0 before the Sydney Test. Following the third Test in
Melbourne, Dhoni announced his retirement from the format. In his last Test, he
effected 9 dismissals (8 catches and 1 stumping), and in the process, went past
Kumar Sangakkara in the record for stumpings with 134 (in all three formats
combined)and also broke the record for effecting the most dismissals in a match by
an Indian wicketkeeper. He finished his last innings unbeaten making 24 runs.
20. World Cup
Dhoni played his first ODI World Cup in 2007 at the Caribbean. India made
an early exit from the tournament in the Group Stage. In 2007 Cricket World
Cup, India was placed in Group B with Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Bermuda. Rahul Dravid captained the team in this World Cup. In three matches India played, they
managed to win only one against Bermuda while losing the rest from Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. In their first match against Bangladesh, India was all out in just 191
in 49.3 overs. Dhoni was out for 0. He stumped Tamim Iqbal, Shakib Al Hasan and captain Habibul Bashar in the match but, India lost by 5 wickets. In the next
match against Bermuda, India posted the then Highest Score in the World Cup 413/5 in a must-win match. Dhoni scored 29 off 25 Balls which includes Two 4s and
One 6. India won the match by 257 runs. India was required to win their last group match against the Lankans but they lost by 69 runs. Chasing the target of 255,
India crumbled to 185 all out in 43.3 overs. Dhoni was out for 0 for the second time in the tournament in his very first ball by Muttiah Muralitharan. Thus, India was
out of the world cup in very first round. The Team was heavily criticized for their performance. Dhoni's under construction house in Ranchi was attacked by some 200
fans after the Bangladesh loss.
21. Under Dhoni's captaincy, India won the 2011 World Cup. In the final against Sri Lanka, chasing 275, Dhoni promoted
himself up the batting order, coming before an in form Yuvraj Singh. When he came to bat India needed more than six
runs per over with three top order batsmen already dismissed. He started building a good partnership with Gautam
Gambhir. Due to good stroke play and active running between wickets, they kept up with the required run rate. Dhoni was
on 60 off 60 balls, but later accelerated with a greater flow of boundaries, ending with 91 not out off 79 balls. Befitting the
occasion, he finished the match of in style with a huge six over long-on off bowler Nuwan Kulasekara and won Man of the
Match. Later in the post-match presentation, he admitted that he came up the order so as to counter the Muralitharan spin
threat as he was very familiar with Murali's bowling, who was his team-mate in the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise
Chennai Super Kings. He had come after the dismissal of Virat Kohli, also a right-handed batsman. By partnering the left-
handed Gambhir, he ensured a right-left combination at the crease that makes it difficult for bowlers to settle into a rhythm.
The bat used by Dhoni in the final match was sold for ₹ 72 Lac. The money goes to Sakshi Rawat Foundation, operated by
Dhoni's wife Sakshi Rawat to help orphan children.
22. For the 2015 World Cup held in Australia and New Zealand, Dhoni was named the captain of the 30-member squad by the BCCI in December 2014. Under his
captaincy, India was able to go through to semi-finals with ease, beating Bangladesh in the quarter-finals. However, they lost to Australia in the semi-finals held at the
Sydney Cricket Ground . The team won 7 consecutive matches in this world cup and won 11 all consecutive in world cups. With the win against Bangladesh, he
became the first non-Australian captain to win 100 ODI matches, and first Indian captain to achieve the mark. He is also the third captain to win 100 matches, after
two Australians, Ricky Ponting, and Allan Border.
Indian Premier League
Dhoni was contracted by the Chennai Super Kings for 1.5 Million USD. This made him the most
expensive player in the IPL for the first season auctions. Under his captaincy, Chennai Super Kings
have won two Indian Premier League titles and the 2010 Champions League Twenty20.Presently,
Dhoni is the captain of Rising Pune Supergiants cricket team, the two season replacement for
