Former India captain MS Dhoni and Sakshi Singh have been one of the most lovable couples in the cricketing fraternity. They got hitched on 4th July 2010 after two years of courtship and celebrated their 15th anniversary by cutting a cake in a low-key ceremony as well. The duo met in Taj Bengal, Kolkata way back in 2007 as well.
However, MS Dhoni retired from the Tests in 2014 and Sakshi revealed that the decision was taken in the wake of spending time with the family. Eventually, he quit the captaincy from all formats in 2017 before announcing his international retirement in 2020 as well. The couple cut a cake on their memorable day and Sakshi Dhoni took to her Instagram account to share some of the throwback pictures of them as well.

However, MS Dhoni shared the influence of his mother and wife on his life as well. He also termed them as the constant pillar of support. It is also noted that he was unavailable as Sakshi delivered their first baby, Ziva, back in 2015 as well. Captain Cool had quipped that he prioritizes national duties over everything as India were in Australia for World Cup 2015 as well.
“They are the pillar of strength in the family. Whether it is my wife or if I see my mom, they are the ones who run the family. She has a budget and she has to run the full 30 days or whatever. They are excellent at it. I feel that they are the ones who bring comfort into our family…you always fall back on them. You can ask them anything,” said Dhoni at an event.
