MS Dhoni finishes with a four and Virender Sehwag sends him a special message!

On July 6th, Dhoni played his 500th international cricket match in Cardiff against England

For MS Dhoni, it’s his 38^th birthday which he celebrated with his family and teammates in England. But for his fans and all the cricket fanatics across the globe, it’s no less like a festival.

Considered as the best wicketkeeper and finisher in the world, Dhoni turns 38 today. While his celebrations have already began in Cardiff, his followers are pouring in wishes on the social media.

Earlier on July 6^th, Dhoni played his 500^th international cricket match in Cardiff against England. Though they lost the game, Dhoni didn’t miss to entertain the crowd in Cardiff. He smashed 32 runs off 25 balls and hit 5 boundaries.

Meanwhile, the people on Twitter came up with heart-winning messages to greet Dhoni on his day. His IPL franchise, the Chennai Super Kings have decalred July 7 as 'Thala Day' while others have their own ways to congratulate the legend. Here’s some of the reactions:

MS Dhoni is already a cricketing legend, be it with his winning sixes or his cool captaincy. So here's a good time to look at how he has reinvented himself off late to remain a crucial part of India's success with the white ball. #AakashVani pic.twitter.com/bq1EoEPfVR

Dear Mahi Bhai, I have always believed that people are placed in life for a reason, and sometimes you don't expect someone to have an impact on your life until they do. You have been through so much, but continue to push past any obstacle that falls into your path. You keep calm so well, and it's like a super power of yours. You inspire me everyday to want to be a better & tough person to face my own challenges. But most of all, I want to thank you for being the best role model we all could look up to. Once a fanboy, always a fan boy! Happy Birthday Mahi Bhai! @mahi7781
