Dhoni’s Family

Like most Indian cricketers, MS Dhoni too had humble beginnings. Born in Ranchi on July 7, 1981 to Paan Singh Dhoni & Devki Dhoni, MS was a keen footballer in school, but switched to cricket, sometime in 1993 and never looked back. Having made his first-class debut in 1999 for Bihar, Dhoni went on to first represent India in 2004 in an ODI against Bangladesh.

MS is the youngest child of his parents and has a brother – Narendra Singh Dhoni & a sister Jayanti Gupta. While NS is a politician, his sister was an English teacher and is married. On the other hand, father Paan, who hails from Lvali village, Almora District in Uttarakhand, was a Manager at MECON and moved to Ranchi in 1964. His mother is a housewife.

It was in 2010, that Dhoni got married to Sakshi Rawat, who studied Hotel management, and worked in Taj Kolkata. The couple gave birth to a baby girl, Ziva in 2015.

Early Career

It was somewhere in 1998 that Dhoni started representing Central Coal Fields Limited and Bihar U-19 in 1998–99. Apart from that, he also worked as a ticket examiner at the Kharagpur Railway Station, West Bengal. Later in 2002-03 he represented Jharkhand in the domestic competitions.
