July 6 (CRICKETNMORE) Cricket is a religion in India and it is the fans who have made it one. So, even as media personnel and pundits continue the debate whether former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni should hang his boots after the World Cup in England and Wales, the fans have given their verdict ahead of Indias last group game against Sri Lanka at the Headingley Cricket Ground on Saturday.

Speaking to IANS outside the historic ground, Rajesh — an ardent Dhoni fan — said that while his contribution to Indian cricket was unparalleled, it was time for the former skipper to hang his boots after the showpiece event.
