In India, cricket has been termed as a religion and hence the players are often treated as gods by their die-hard fans. Popular Indian players like Sachin Tendulkar, MS Dhoni, and Virat Kohli have also garnered a similar fan following thanks to their contribution to the country. Dhoni, especially, is loved all over the world not only for his excellent captaincy during which Team India won all the ICC trophies but also for the way he approaches the game. However, this time he as grabbed eyeballs for his lovely gesture towards one of his handicapped fans as the veteran shook hands with him and spent some time as well.
Team India is currently in Kerala and will be looking to win the series by winning the fifth and final ODI against the Windies. Personally, for Dhoni, this will be the last game this year as he has been sidelined from the T20I squads against the Caribbean side and Australia.

On his way to the Greenfield Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram, MS Dhoni was made aware of the handicapped fan waiting for him. The experienced cricketer obliged to the request and went on to meet him and spoke for some time. He also clicked a few pictures with the fan and autographed a few of the pictures which were handed over to him. This warm gesture from the veteran cricketer is being loved on the social media and it is going viral as well.
Here is the video of the same:

MS Dhoni will be looking to end his rather poor year with the bat on a high when he takes the field on Thursday. Windies had won the toss and opted to bat first, but they were bundled out for a meager score of 104. They’ve made a couple of changes to the team bringing in Devendra Bishoo and Oshane Thomas for injured Ashley Nurse and Chandrapaul Hemraj. India, however, has retained the same eleven from the last game and are the favourites to win the series.
