Finding himself standing at crossroads of an illustrious career with just four matches short of a mammoth 300 ODI games, Dhoni was also greeted by another wicket-keeper batsman – Mohammad Shahzad – who has always been a huge admirer of the former Indian skipper.


Shahzad might be going through a tough phase in his cricketing career - after being suspended by the International Cricket Council (ICC) after being charged with doping violations on April 13 – but that didn't stop him from wishing Dhoni on his special day.



"Here's wishing Mahi bhai a very happy birthday @msdhoni 7," Shahzad had tweeted.


One of the best finishers of the game, played perhaps the most horrendous knock of his 13-year-ODI career – 54 off 114 balls – in an unsuccessful 190-run chase against an under- strength West Indies before Team India notched up an easy victory in 5th and final ODI to wrap-up the series.
