New Delhi: Indian football captain Sunil Chhetri said that there are very few who have served our country like Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Dhoni announced his retirement from international cricket on August 15.
Chhetri tweeted and expressed how proud he is for MSD, “There are few who’ve represented the country so well for a long time. Few who’ve won it all. Few who’ve been role models to us. And then there is you, Mahi. Well done and proud of you my friend. Enjoy your brand new calendar with all those deserved rest days. @msdhoni.”

He also tweeted about Suresh Raina who hanged his boots on the same day, just after few minutes of Captain Cool’s retirement. “And you, @ImRaina. You’ve had a fantastic career, my friend. The perfect example of someone who has such a big impact and still manages to stay away from all the limelight. Enjoy your retirement.”
Dhoni has made his ODI debut in 2004, played 350 ODIs, 90 Tests and 98 T20Is for India. While Raina is the first Indian batsman to hit a century in all three formats of international cricket. He has played 18 Tests, 226 ODIs and 78 T20Is for India. Dhoni and Raina both will be seen in action playing for CSK in the 13th edition of IPL which will be held in the UAE from September 19 to November 10.
