Ranchi Remembers Santosh Lal, The Man Who Gifted Helicopter Shot To Dhoni
Mahendra Singh Dhoni: Long before it became Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s trademark on the world stage, the iconic helicopter shot was just a street-smart stroke played on dusty grounds in Ranchi -- first perfected by Santosh Lal, fondly known as Bunty.
On his 12th death anniversary on Thursday, Ranchi remembers the unsung hero who taught this now-legendary shot to Dhoni, his childhood friend.
Though Santosh passed away on July 17, 2013, at the age of just 29, his contribution to Indian cricket has become part of folklore.
