The captain cool Mahendra Singh Dhoni was the first-ever captain to win the T20 World Cup. Be it with bat or his leadership skill, Dhoni always played a decisive role whenever he played for India. He is one of the most successful captains that India has ever produced and was part of every T20 World Cup that India won. He was part of the squad in all the previous editions of the tournament except for 2021 when India announced him as the mentor of the side.
The 41-year-old smashed 529 runs in the 33 matches that he played in the tournament. With a strike rate of 123.88, Dhoni averages 35.26 in the tournament. Being a wicketkeeper, Dhoni has the most dismissals (32) in the history of the tournament.
Dhoni also holds the record of captaining most matches in the tournament. In 2019, he announced his retirement from international cricket but features regularly in the IPL. He is the captain of the Chennai Super Kings team and has four IPL trophies to his name.
