Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been the darling of Indian masses since over a decade and daughter Ziva, too, has become a sensation on the internet off late. In the latest video that has gone viral on social media, the former Indian captain could be seen spending time with Ziva, as the two-and-a-half year-old is sitting on his lap and singing a Christmas carol.

Earlier on Sunday night, Dhoni, who had scored the winning runs against Sri Lanka in the third T20I match in Mumbai, had some fun with his teammates by donning Santa caps. Dhoni’s adorable look in the Santa ‘avatar’ brought smiles on the faces of his fans.

Meanwhile, Dhoni, whose form with the bat has been heavily scrutinised in the recent past with every failure being looked upon as an ominous sign, found a staunch supporter in India’s coach Ravi Shastri, who said the wicket-keeper batsman was irreplaceable in the Indian ODI team right now.
“We are not stupid. I have been watching this sport for the last 30-40 years. Virat has been a part of this team for a decade now. We know, at this age, he (Dhoni) can beat players aged 26. People who talk, forget that they played the game,” Shastri told ‘India Today’.
