India limited-over skipper, MS Dhoni has been named in Forbes world’s richest athletes list and is the sole Indian, who has been named in the list of 100 highest-paid athletes in the world.

The list features the likes of American boxer Floyd Mayweather, who tops the chart, Roger Federer, Tiger Woods and Cristiano Ronaldo. Dhoni, meanwhile, is 23rd on the list with an estimated earning of USD 31 million, according to Forbes.

“He led India to the semifinal round of the 2015 Cricket World Cup before suffering a loss to eventual champion Australia, and in May the Chennai Super Kings went to the IPL Finals for the sixth time in his eight years as team captain,” Forbes said.

The list is made taking earnings from salaries, bonuses and prize money won by athletes between June 2014 and June 2015.
