Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been granted to receive the third highest civilian award in India, Padma Bhushan

The winning skipper of all ICC events in the game of cricket, Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been granted to receive the third highest civilian award in India, Padma Bhushan. The Ranchi lad is the 11th cricketer to be awarded such a great honour.

The Padma Bhushan which is initiated back in 1954, is given for conspicuous service of a high order by an individual in the respective field for the country. MS Dhoni who is widely regarded as one of the masterminds to grace the game of cricket was the unanimous choice for the selection panel to grant the honour.

MS Dhoni is currently serving the Indian team in limited overs format as he called curtains on his Test cricket to focus on white ball cricket. He led India to victory in 2007 and 2011 World Cups and then bagged Champions Trophy and Asia Cups under his belt. India has also been number 1 in Test cricket under his captaincy for quite a time.

India completed seven years of their famous World Cup triumph today and Mahendra Singh Dhoni played an integral role in taking them to the title. Dhoni took a brave decision to promote himself up the order despite being not in the best of forms in the whole tournament.

Dhoni scored a quickfire 91 and put together an alliance of 109 runs with southpaw Gautam Gambhir. The Delhi batsman also contributed with 97 runs to take India home which was the highest successful chase in the World Cup final.

There is no denying the fact that MS Dhoni took Indian cricket to great heights and he was an inspirational leader. The same legacy has now been carried on by current skipper Virat Kohli. Dhoni always led the Indian team with aplomb and deserved the prestigious award from the Government of India.
