Cricket legend Mahendra Singh Dhoni returned to social media triumphantly, celebrating India's T20 World Cup win after a two-year hiatus. The former captain, who once led India to its first T20 World Cup title in 2007, congratulated the team for their stellar performance against New Zealand in Ahmedabad.

In his Instagram post, Dhoni acknowledged head coach Gautam Gambhir, playfully noting how a smile suited his otherwise serious demeanor. "Coach Sahab smile looks great on u, intensity with smile is a killer combo," he commented. This follows India's dominant match where they thrashed New Zealand by 96 runs.

Under the leadership of Suryakumar Yadav, India's top-order batters impressed, while Jasprit Bumrah delivered a bowling masterclass. Dhoni's return added a nostalgic touch, harking back to the days of his leadership and the team's previous World Cup victories.
