MS Dhoni emerged as the poster boy of Indian Cricket ever since he scored his first International hundred against Pakistan in 2005. The stylish batter became a national crush and had many female fans swooning over his stylish strokeplay. Among the many admirers of the ‘Captain Cool’, there was one popular name of the emerging Bollywood actress, Deepika Padukone.
