MSD has quit at the right time and put Virat under pressure due to some recent practices followed in BCCI 1. All key players like Ashwin/Jadeja/Shami are being rested for ODIs saying that they need rest to play upcoming tests ( May be as advised by Virat) Few medicore players are given as replacement for NZ series and the team lost two matches. Entire media wrote that MSD had overlived. Finally he managed to win the series somehow. 2. After each test match win, all media houses conducted polls for making Virat as captain for all formats 3. Virat got desired wickets/pitches in all test matche venues. But MSD could not get after Srini's exit. Mumbai/Kolkatta prepared their own flat /seaming wickets to ensure that MSD is lost in those matches. ( SA made 425 in Mumbai ODI last year and even Ravi Shastri fought with the curator) 4. Virat playing with carefree attitude in ODIs and failed in crucial times (WC 2015 SF) and now it will be a different story 5. Do not be surprised if rested test bowlers are recalled tomorrow for ODIs where Virat is likely to be made captain for all formats

We really do not know what you are trying to say. But bring some clarity to your thoughts and post your so called comments. Dhoni is by all means the best captain, wicketkeeper and a batsman (finisher). Winning World Cup, T20 and Champions Trophy is an achievement. Dhoni, we will miss you badly.
Dhoni is an achiever, admired by millions of Indians, who know all the minutest details of the game and many others who do not know. Now that he has stepped down from being the captain of all formats, he should be gradually inducted into cricket administration to replace people like Gavaskar and Shastri, who have been ruling the roost continuously for decades.
