The photos and videos shared by his wife show 38-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman having a happy time with his friends and family.
Prior to that, when Rohit Sharma was questioned about the plans for celebrating Dhoni’s birthday, the Mumbai Indians captain said that the decision will be based on the result of South Africa vs Australia match and accordingly the Indian team will plan to celebrate Dhoni’s birthday in the team bus. In a surprise turnover, South Africa defeated the current world champion Australia.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni has won all the major accolades of the cricketing world. He is the only international captain to have won T20 World Cup, ICC 50-over World Cup, and Champions Trophy. It was during his tenure as the captain that India became number one in both the formats of the game. The Chennai Super Kings franchise won the IPL tournament three times under his able captainship.
