Shoaib Malik, Ross Taylor, Dale Stein, Dion Bravo and Dinesh Karthik as well.

in present Time after Virat Kohli.
Dhoni world cup journey is
always been up and down in a player, as a cricketer and even as job role. Yet we
see the World Cup journey in Short.
2007 Very New Star of Indian Cricket and Fails to deliver expectations
2007 was the first World Cup appearance for MS
Dhoni. This World Cup was a disaster for Team India. India exit in the first round
itself even having the one of the greatest team like Sachin, Ganguly, Dravid,
Sehwag, Yuvraj, Dhoni, Zaheer, Harbhajan, Agarkar etc.
There were lots of expectations
from MS Dhoni respect to his performance before a couple of years. Dhoni got out
in Zero twice in 3 innings. His scored 29 runs vs Namibia only when every
batsman scored.
This was the time when Dhoni
taste Disrespect from Fan and lots of Critics from around the world. And even
this was the time when Dhoni role and New Indian team arise for Next two world
Cup T20 2007 and Icc WC 2011.
Batting records in World Cup 2007
M- 3 Inning -3, Run- 29, HS – 29, 50-0, Avg – 9.66, SR – 100, Zero - 2
2011 - Captain of Experienced team having great players and time to delivery earn respect inPast.
Till 2011 Dhoni have
achieved lots of thing in Indian Cricket. He knew more as Captain, Planner,
Finisher and Best wicket keeper than a specialist Batsman. Dhoni had compromise
top order batting than to play as team management.
With the good relations with seniors
and encouraging youngster, Dhoni had created the best team to win the World Cup.
If we discuss batting, his performance was below average. He had
scored just 150 runs in 7 innings with a strike rate of 61. His batting becomes
very sensitive and more as supporting to the Leading batsman. His best of ICC World Cup
2011 came on Final itself and one of the best innings in final with Gautam
Gambhir. He scores 91 in 79 suddenly coming at no 4.
Batting records in World Cup 2011
M- 9 Inning -8, Run 241, HS – 91, 50-1, Avg – 48.20, SR - 75
2015 - New Team and responsibility of driving planning and performing as a genuine batsman
This was the time when
Dhoni played as a special batsman, Captain, Mentor, Wicketkeeper, planner and
all. As the teams are inexperience and many players playing World Cup first time
ever, Dhoni had big responsibly to take to Semi Final. In the run of the most favourite
team like South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, England, Team India look very
far.
Dhoni Captaincy and players
individual performance in every occasion makes team India till Semi-Final.
Dhoni scored 2 fifty in this series including 65 in Semifinal against
Australia. He also scored 85 vs Zimbabwe with Suresh Raina 110 while chasing
287.
Batting records in World Cup 2015
M- 8 Inning -6, Run 237, HS – 85*, 50-1, Avg -59.25 SR - 75
2019 – New role as mentor and finisher with experience of every cricket knowledge to bring one more Title for the team again
This world Cup Dhoni will see in once again in New Role. His
prime responsibility in as Finisher and lower middle order batsman. Also, planner
and wicketkeeper who give 1 wicket with extra curriculum wicketkeeping ability.
As there is no Rayudu in Team than Dhoni Might see in No.4 in batting order quiet occasions in league matches.
This will be Dhoni's last World Cup and he will be thinking to finish with good notes. Dhoni will be the backbone of the Indian Dressing room to guide and mentor new member as well as bonding with a long relative teammate Like Kohli, Rohit, Dhawan, Karthik and Shami etc.
