Captain Marvel: One-day series wins under the leadership of MS Dhoni

When Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni lifted the Compaq Cup, it was precisely the seventh time he flexed his muscles to lift an ODI trophy. In the ten one-day series that Dhoni has captained India since 2007, he has led the team to some memorable series win in quite a few of them. The victories in Australia, Sri Lanka and New Zealand have been pathbreaking, given the fact that India rarely won any one-day series in these countries. Let's now rewind and take a look at the ODI series win that India achieved under the able leadership of MS Dhoni

India though racked up some huge totals and easily chased down runs to set up a 3-2 series win against the Pakistanis. The series win was Dhoni's first taste of ODI success in his new role as the captain of the side.
