Former captain MS Dhoni, who led India to the 2011 ICC World Cup triumph, is just like Ajit Wadekar, who guided the country to its first Test series win on English soil this day in 1971.
The similarity was made by none other than Wadekar`s wife Rekha, who has been a keen follower of Indian cricket for more than 50 years.
