Decently, yes, greatly, no.
He's improved his stats a lot in this tour actually with three half centuries and an average of 196 for the series.
Even with this series he's averaging 46 at a strike rate of 72 in Australia against Australia. Before this series he was averaging 35 at 71 in Australia against Australia (I make that clarification to filter out the 2015 world cup and other neutral games, which don't actually help Dhoni's stats much - his superb series against Sri Lanka is mostly cancelled out by an awful world cup campaign).
So in a roundabout way, this last series where he was heavily criticised for being too crap, he's statistically plugged a hole in his record.
Ankitj, man of the series awards are much harder to achieve when your team mates are McGrath, Warne, Ponting, Symonds, Hussey and Hayden than when they are a past-it Tendulkar and a not-quite-there-yet Kohli.
Gilchrist hit two half centuries and a century in three world cup grand finals.
But then I don't think Dhoni is directly competing with Gilchrist. I think what matters more is who pairs them in the other spot/ role. Gilchrist+Bevan vs Dhoni+Jayasuriya/Waugh/Watson.
It's not as straight forward as Dhoni > Gilchrist or vice versa because you need to take into account conditions and the other players available.

His legacy would be greatly enhanced if he toured Australia today.

Stop embarassing yourself oldman . Australian fan base consists of yourself and Ikki . Can't get any worse than that .

Dhoni would have been a lock in 2013, he had the advantage of having a much faster scoring rate compared to Bevan + being the keeper. Now it's sorta even - stevens between him and Gilly, and no neither De Kock nor Buttler are anywhere close to the level of these two for now.

Yeah exactly. If you're looking for players who have "great" statistical records in each country they played in the way stephen is, then you won't even be able to even name a good xi.
