While former captain MS Dhoni was not an active part of the T20I India vs Ireland series, the 36-year-old player surely made his presence felt. During the first innings of the game, the Indian keeper turned into a water boy and served drinks to the team’s batsmen. In no time, several pictures of Dhoni were circulated on the social media, with many praising the man for his humble gesture. For those who follow cricket regularly, this was not the first time Dhoni has taken up this responsibility. Last year during the ICC Champions Trophy, he was spotted taking up the duty at a practice match against Bangladesh.

While India’s win against Ireland is said to be by the biggest margin, in terms of runs, it was Dhoni’s gesture too that added to the celebrations. What do you think about this picture? Tell us in the comments section below.
