As India geared up to lock horns with their rivals at Andhra Cricket Association stadium in Vizag, Dhoni became the first wicketkeeper-batsman in the ODI history to lead a team in 150 matches.
Dhoni is the second skipper after Mohammad Azharuddin to lead India in 150 ODIs. Azharuddin holds the record of leading India in 174 matches.
Dhoni, who took the command of the Indian team in 2007, is also the first captain in the history to win all three ICC global events – T20 World Cup(2007), ODI World Cup(2011) and Champions Trophy(2013).
