Asia Cup 2018, IND vs AFG: Not Rohit Sharma but this is why MS Dhoni is back as the captain of team India
This is surely a good news for the Indian cricket fans who are quite happy with the comeback of MS Dhoni as the Indian captain the match against Afghanistan. The current skipper Rohit Sharma is on rest today and that's why MS Dhoni will lead the bench strength of the team for the today's match.
Now, this could be the special tribute to the former captain MS Dhoni from Rohit Sharma's side for recalling memories of 2007 T20 world cup win under MS Dhoni captaincy. The team of MS Dhoni won the first T20 world cup on 24th September 2007 and Rohit Sharma was one of the players in the squad.
Look who's captaining India today!

MS Dhoni is leading India for the 200th time.
"It's destiny. Good to complete 200 ODIs," says Captain Cool.#AsiaCup2018 #INDvAFG live updates: https://t.co/sGc7eH7FrP pic.twitter.com/XQzVqM3jFz
Now, one more big reason for MS Dhoni to lead the team as a captain is because it is his 200th ODI match as a captain. So it could be the reason why the team and BCCI thought of giving MS Dhoni a captaincy for today. Well, we can only be happy seeing MS Dhoni doing captaincy on the field once again.
