Nagpur, Mar 6: Mahendra Singh Dhoni is among the fastest runners between the wickets in international cricket. On Tuesday, the pace came in handy as he tried to dodge a fan, who breached security in pursuit of a hug from the charismatic former captain.
Dhoni did embrace the man but only after making him run for it.

The 37-year-old was walking to take position behind the stumps moments before India began their defence of 250 against Australia in the second ODI here.
At that moment, a fan broke through the security to run on to the field, wanting a hug from the World Cup-winning skipper.
A grinning Dhoni quite literally played hard to get while the rest of the Indian team enjoyed the light moment.
The man, clad in a white T-shirt, ran after his idol, who relented for few seconds before agreeing to embrace him.
The fan also touched Dhoni's feet before he was escorted out by a Vidarbha Cricket Association volunteer and a few security personnel.
