JE Sports Desk: Former India captain MS Dhoni, who is universally regarded as the best finisher in the modern game, celebrated his 42nd Birthday on Friday. On his special day, the cricket fraternity and his fans came up with heartening wishes on social media.

Being someone who hardly uses social media, Dhoni reciprocated the gratitude by posting a video on his official Instagram account on Saturday. In the video, the 42-year-old can be seen cutting a cake with his pet dogs and feeding it to them one-by-one. He also posted a caption which read, "Thanks a lot for all your warm wishes, a glimpse of what I did on my birthday."
