Believe it or not, the captain is yet to score his maiden half-century in T20 Internationals having donned the blue jersey in 43 of the 46 matches that India has played so far.
Sounds weird but Dhoni's aggregate of 772 runs is most by any batsman without a single fifty in T20 Internationals.
Incidentally, his highest score is 48 not out against Australia in a losing cause at the 'Stadium Australia' in Sydney.
In the remaining two deliveries, he scored three runs to get to 48 not out as India lost by 31 runs.

Dhoni has mainly batted at No 5 or 6 (13 times each) in the T20 Internationals which effectovely meant that on most occasions, only few overs were left. A testimony to that is remaining not out on 16 occasions out of the 40 times that he went into bat during those 43 games.
The other T20 game that he missed was during India's tour of West Indies in 2011 when he had opted out of the limited overs series (T20's and ODis) having played World Cup and IPL back-to-back in four months of gruelling cricket.
