New Delhi - M.S. Dhoni on Saturday retired from India's national team, ending one of the most heralded international cricket careers ever.

He posted a 247-second video of his career highlights on Instagram and added in a caption:"Thanks a lot for your love and support throughout. From 1929hrs consider me as retired." He holds the record for most international matches as captain, 332, and his 195 international stumpings is also the most by any wicket-keeper.

"The boy from Ranchi, who made his ODI debut in 2004, changed the face of Indian cricket with his calm demeanour, sharp understanding of the game and astute leadership qualities," the Board of Control for Cricket in India said in a statement confirming Dhoni's move. "But the mutual respect and warmth I've received from you will always stay in mine. The world has seen achievements, I've seen the person. Thanks for everything skip. I tip my hat to you."
