#8 224 vs Australia, Chennai, 2013
Dhoni made a habit of leading the team from the front and the Chennai test against the mighty Aussies was another glorious example of this trait. Australia posted 380 on a dry Chepauk wicket with India needing a big total in reply.
India was at 196/4 when Dhoni took guard. First, a 128 run stand with Virat Kohli and then a brilliant 140 run partnership with debutante Bhuvaneshwar Kumar set the ball rolling for India.
Dhoni's blazing knock despite wickets falling at the other end was commendable. He scored 224 runs from 265 balls which included 24 fours and 6 sixes. It turned out to be a match-winning knock from Dhoni as India registered a famous eight wicket Test win.
Individually, this was Dhoni's highest ever test score and the first double hundred from an Indian wicketkeeper. This 224 run knock also happened to be the highest score ever by an Indian captain in Tests.
