    M.S.

    Dhoni: The Helicopter Legend

    From winning the Cricket World Cup to the Champions Trophy and
    being the only Captain to lead his team to victory on both occasions, it is
    no surprise that M.S. Dhoni has been termed as a ‘Legend of Cricket’.
    Dhoni is labeled as ‘Captain Cool’ and this comes as a great compliment
    to this cricketer as he is known for maintaining his calm and composure
    during tough times and is hence prepared for any situation he is about to
    face.
    For him, cricket is not just a sport. It is his life. Cricket is his obsession;
    his passion and most importantly, his dream come true. He breathes
    cricket and that is the secret to his success. From being a former football
    goalkeeper to a ticket collector, he never stopped pursuing his dreams
    and finally made it as one of the best cricketers in the world; M.S. Dhoni
    is an inspiration to all.
    Not only is he known for finishing his matches with crystal clear shots,
    his wicket keeping skills that have been compared to ‘lightning’ are
    admired by many across the globe. Looking back at his matches, Dhoni
    left the audience wanting more in his best played international cricket
    match where he smashed 91 runs of 79 balls against Sri Lanka. He also
    scored a dazzling 148 runs in an ODI against Pakistan and his colossal
    183 not out against Sri Lanka is legendary.
    While Dhoni is known for his great sportsmanship, what stands out the
    most about this great player is his world famous ‘Helicopter Shot’. He is
    the first cricketer in history to hit the helicopter shot and is respected by
    many for this skill.
    Here is a little history behind the famous Helicopter Shot. Years ago
    M.S. Dhoni played a match against his fellow friend Santosh Lal.
    Santosh had 5 runs to win with only a ball left, as part of a strategy to
    win the game, Dhoni instructed the bowler to aim the ball at Santosh’s
    leg. As the bowler threw the ball at Santosh’s leg, the batsman made a
    full circle with his bat and swept the ball away. This shot was later
    termed as the helicopter shot. Dhoni longed to learn this unique shot
    from his friend and after immense practice he finally mastered the
    technique. In his career of cricket, Dhoni has hit many of these shots and
    won many matches as well as hearts using this shot.
    Witnessing a legend like M.S. Dhoni retiring from cricket is saddening;
    however he will always be remembered for his dedication to the game
    and to our country. From building a stronger team for India, to making
    the entire country cheer with pride and joy, he has changed how people
    have viewed Cricket over the years. He is now and will always be
    embedded in our minds and hearts as a Legendary Cricketer.
