But he has struggled as a skipper overseas. In India's last two series against England, the visitors lost 1-3 and 0-4. In this picture, Dhoni trudges off dismissed for a duck during the fifth cricket test match against England at the Oval cricket ground in London August 17, 2014. Reuters

Dhoni's low points were not just overseas - where he lost eight consecutive Tests overseas. England beat his side in India too — but Dhoni continued to lead the team. Probably the series loss against Australia was too much - and Dhoni called it a day from Test cricket. The flowing mane had by now turned to a graying crop. He will still go down as one of India's greats. Getty Images
