Just like his retirement from Tests in 2014, MS Dhoni surprised everyone when he stepped down as the captain of Indian ODI and T20I team.
There were mixed reactions among fans as the coolest captain to have led the Indian Cricket team in 199 ODIs finished his career 1 ODI short of an amazing landmark.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to MS Dhoni’s captaincy decision:
There is no one like you.
You're the reason for millions of smiles.
Take a bow my Captain.?@msdhoni #dhoni pic.twitter.com/NLRtTlcPhq— Sushant Singh Rajput (@itsSSR) January 4, 2017
Dhoni retires as captain. This is like Demahitization just after Demonetization in the country.

If it were Tamil Nadu, Kohli and others would have been at Dhoni's place asking Sakshi to take over as the captain.

#Dhoni retires from captaincy.
Same day as BCCI is looking for a new President.
Forget being under Kohli.
Dhoni may be his big boss!— Sorabh Pant (@hankypanty) January 4, 2017
I still remember those words.
