15th August 2020, the day India celebrated its 74th Independence, will now be remembered for other reasons too. Cricket fans around the world went in a shell shock as the legend MS Dhoni took to Instagram to announce his retirement from International Cricket.
Soon after MS posted a video on his Instagram feed, it went viral on social media as the fans expressed their disappointment and paid their tribute to this living legend of the game.
Women cricketers too were taken aback from this sudden announcement and took to Twitter to bid farewell.

Congratulations @msdhoni on an incredible career. T20, ODI WC 🏆 winning captain and took India to No 1 Test team in the world. A man who grafted hard to get to the top and proceeded to keep us on the edge of our seats. #MSDhoni

Pal Do Pal Meri Kahani Hai.
MS Dhoni, an incredible player and a calm Captain that shaped the entire Indian team. A keeper, who would stump in a flash of light, and a batter who would take the match to the end.
God speed.#MSDhoni
