shikhar dhawan
With the end of the league stage matches in the 17th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), the journey of many teams came to an end. One name in this is the Punjab Kings team, whose performance on the field this season was very poor and they finished at the 9th position. This season, the captaincy of the Punjab Kings team was on the shoulders of 38-year-old experienced batsman Shikhar Dhawan, but he got injured during the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 9, after which he could not play any match this season. Now Dhawan has also hinted at retirement in one of his statements, the big reason for which is also his increasing age.
I’m going through a transition right now
Shikhar Dhawan said in a statement to news agency ANI that he is currently going through a phase of change. After a while, I would like to say goodbye to cricket. After this, a new chapter will also begin in my life. Anything can happen to me in the next one or two years. At the same time, Dhawan said about his performance in IPL 2024 that unfortunately I got injured after the first few matches of this season and could play only 4 or 5 matches for the team. It takes time for a player to be fully fit and my injury is also improving, although I have not been able to get fully fit yet.
Dhawan played his last international match in the year 2022
At one time, Shikhar Dhawan was counted among the leading opening batsmen of the Indian team, in which the magic of his bat was seen in the Champions Trophy played in the year 2013. Dhawan played his last international match for Team India on the tour of Bangladesh in the year 2022. While Dhawan has 7 centuries in Test cricket, he has played 17 century innings in ODIs. Talking about Dhawan’s IPL career, he has played 2 centuries and 51 half-century innings, scoring 6768 runs in 222 matches.
