As Team India celebrated their 12th anniversary of the 2011 World Cup win on Sunday (April 2, 2023), Virat Kohli, who was part of the victorious Indian team of 2011, paid a fitting tribute to Dhoni.
With 6 runs needed off 3.5 overs to win against Mumbai Indians on Sunday, Virat struck a mammoth six, a shot very much similar to Dhoni’s iconic six in the final of Cricket World Cup 2011.
Fans noticed this immediately and tweeted heavily remembering that nostalgic moment:
The 2023 ODI World Cup will be played in India in October-November this year and Virat will be making his fourth World Cup appearance.
