Hyderabad: As the 2011 World Cup-winning captain MS Dhoni is celebrating his 38th birthday on Sunday, a deluge of wishes poured in for the venerable wicket-keeper batsman.
India skipper Virat Kohli took to Twitter and wished Dhoni while adding that the 38-year old will always be his captain.
"Happy birthday mahi bhai @msdhoni. Very few people understand the meaning of trust and respect and I'm glad to have had the friendship I have with you for so many years. You've been a big brother to all of us and as I said before, you will always be my captain," Kohli tweeted.
