MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli named captains of ODI, Test team of decade by CA

Three Indians are the part of the ODI playing XI, which includes some of the best one-day players of the 2010s.

Apart from MS Dhoni, India captain Virat Kohli and opener Rohit Sharma also find a place in the team of the decade. Rohit opens along with Hashim Amla in CA's team and Kohli, as usual, comes at No 3, 'cricket.com.au' posted.

MS Dhoni, who led India to World World titles, in 2007 and 2011, also handles the wicketkeeping duties in CA's ODI team.

Having represented India in 350 ODIs, 90 Tests and 98 T20Is, Dhoni has scored 17,266 international runs, which includes 10,773 runs in the 50-over format.

He has also affected a staggering 829 dismissals from behind the stumps.
