#1 Dhoni’s resignation as ODI captain (2017)
When Yuvraj last played an ODI for India, Dhoni was firmly at the helm of affairs, having led the side to a Champions Trophy title. He was rested for the Zimbabwe tour, giving Virat Kohli a go at the captaincy, but came back to lead the side on their tour to South Africa later that year.
Yuvraj makes a comeback to the ODI fold, but in fairly different circumstances, with Virat Kohli now handling the reins and Dhoni playing just as a wicket-keeper batsman in the team. Yuvraj shared an amicable relationship with Dhoni, the captain, and has a different level of comfort with a considerably younger Kohli, but the Delhi lad's brand of captaincy will be surely different from Dhoni’s commands from behind the stumps.
