‘Goodbye, Jersey No 7’: Fans heartbroken as MS Dhoni calls it a day
Tribune Web Desk
Chandigarh, August 15
Indian cricket fans took to social media to say how upset they were at India skipper MS Dhoni’s retirement announcement, with some even asking him to withdraw his decision.
Twitter was flooded with people bidding both Dhoni and his Chennai Super Kings teammate Suresh Raina, who also bid adieu to the game minutes after Dhoni, a tearful farewell.
He is one of a kind is MS Dhoni. And he leaves the game exactly that way. A figther, a leader, a legend. But still a very simple man. A very simple man who once was my room-mate.

Seeing Dhoni’s journey from a small town boy into a match-winner and one of the most astute leaders the world has seen was remarkable. Thank you for the wonderful memories, Mahi. It was my privilege to play alongside you and I will always cherish the memories we shared together. pic.twitter.com/NgCUdR6aSN

From “India A” to “The India” our journey has been full of question marks, commas, blanks & exclamations. Now as you put a full stop to your chapter, I can tell u from experience that the new phase is as exciting and there’s no limit to DRS here!!! Well played @msdhoni @BCCI

Every cricketer has to end his journey one day, but still when someone you’ve gotten to know so closely announces that decision, you feel the emotion much more. What you’ve done for the country will always remain in everyone’s heart…… pic.twitter.com/0CuwjwGiiS
