Apart from Rohit, many other members of the cricket fraternity like Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina and Virender Sehwag also took to social media and greeted the talismanic wicket-keeper batsman. In fact, West Indies and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) all-rounder Dwayne Bravo released his new song ‘Helicopter 7’ as a tribute for the former Indian skipper.

Meanwhile, MS Dhoni's retirement still remains a hot topic of discussion among cricket fans. The wicket-keeper batsman hasn’t played a professional match after the 2019 World Cup. He was set to lead Chennai Super Kings in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020. However, the T20 tournament also got postponed due to the COVID-19 break and it will be interesting to see when the veteran cricketer will make a comeback.
