MS Dhoni beats Azharuddin's record

NEW DELHI: MS Dhoni's 65 runs may have failed to avoid his team's embarrassing defeat against South Africa in the first ODI on Thursday, but his fighting knock earned him a place in record book as the highest scoring captain of India in ODIs.

The skipper reached 5278 runs in his 152nd ODI, leaving behind former captain Mohammad Azharuddin's tally of 5239 in 174 matches. Dhoni's average of 58.64 is also way ahead from Azhar's average of 39.39 as skipper.

Dhoni is the third player to amass 5000 runs as captain for India in ODIs - the other two being Azharuddin and Sourav Ganguly (5082). He also is the quickest to this feat, having taken 127 innings as against 136 by Ganguly and 151 by Azharuddin.
