Who would have expected to see Mahendra Singh Dhoni leading India one more time? It's like a fading superstar bagging a lead role in a blockbuster film. Having quit captaincy almost two years ago, Dhoni found himself leading the Indian team yesterday after skipper Rohit Sharma and his deputy c decided to rest in the inconsequential Asia Cup match against Afghanistan at the Dubai International Stadium.

Dhoni had led India in 199 ODIs when he called it quits after the New Zealand series at home in October 2016. But fate had other ideas and Dhoni unexpectedly got the chance of becoming the first Indian to lead in 200 One-Day Internationals. Dhoni hardly shows any emotion.
