MS Dhoni makes a symbolic return to Visakhapatnam, the stadium where his international career took off in April 2005. After a series of poor performances, he had been promoted to position no. 3 against Pakistan and exploded with 148 runs off 123 balls, studded with 15 boundaries and 4 sixes. This performance had enabled India to reach 356/9, laying the groundwork for Indian success.
