Upon missing the first Test of the 2010 tour of Bangladesh, Dhoni returned to take up captaincy duty for the second match at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka. Despite losing the toss on a flat surface, India routed the hosts for 233 as Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma ran rampant.

With half-centuries from both openers as well as a century each from Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar, they were already in a dominant position when Dhoni walked into bat.

The leg-spinner tossed the ball bravely and coerced the batsman into stretching forward. But the delivery turned past the bat. Mushfiqur Rahim whipped the bails off in an instant to deny his century by a mere 11 runs. While India motored to a ten-wicket win to seal a 2-0 series triumph, Dhoni remained Raqibul's only international scalp.
