Dhoni was stumped off the bowling of Devendra Bishoo in Chennai

Quite the significant occasion, this was the final group match of the 2011 World Cup. Having already qualified for the knockout stages, India locked horns with two-time champions West Indies at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai with the aim of shoring up their standing.

Riding on Yuvraj Singh's splendid knock, the hosts reached a strong position by the time Dhoni walked into his adopted home.

The Indian captain continued the team's momentum by rotating the strike on a regular basis. When it seemed like he was setting himself up for a massive blitz at the death overs, Dhoni's stay was cut short by Devendra Bishoo. The Caribbean leg-spinner enticed the batsman with a well-flighted delivery before beating him in the air.

Devon Thomas took care of the rest to send the versatile right-hander back to the dressing room. Despite their skipper's untimely dismissal, India amassed a formidable total which eventually proved to be beyond the reach of West Indies.
