On January 4th 2017, as people were still in the New Year haze, Mahendra Singh Dhoni had an announcement that caught all his fans off guard. Our Captain Cool declared that he was giving up captaincy, allowing Virat Kohli to acquire his spot in ODIs and T20 matches. As soon as the announcement was made, congratulatory messages and tributes rippled through the Twitterverse. Here is how certain fans reacted when M.S. Dhoni quit limited overs captaincy.
