World cricket has witnessed several big names and classic cricket matches over the years. But there was no 'Helicopter Shot' until Mahendra Singh Dhoni stepped into the cricketing grounds from Ranchi, a small town in the State of Jharkhand. Until then, Yorker was thought to be the bowler's most deadly weapon. Saving wicket by playing defensively was the only option, but Dhoni invented this exceptional shot and taught how to send a Yorker ball out to the boundary! As a result, fearsome bowlers were made to think twice before using their weapons. His helicopter shot has won numerous matches for us. How can we ever forget M.S. Dhoni who shot his super six in the final over to win the 2011 World Cup final?
