Shikhar Dhawan Biography
  • Shikhar Dhawan, an Indian international cricketer, is a left-handed opening batsman and an occasional right-arm off-break bowler. The player, who is widely popular for his composed yet aggressive batting approach, was born on December 5, 1985 in Delhi. Shikhar is often referred to as ""Gabbar"" by his peers because of his noticeable moustache. Following his brilliant domestic performances, Dhawan got the chance to play for India U-19 in the World Cup in Bangladesh in 2006. The opener remarkably amassed 505 runs and finished as the top run-scorer. 
  • In October 2010, Dhawan played his first ODI match against Australia. Though he made no significant contributions to international cricket for a while, his Test debut in 2013 against Australia helped him set a substantial achievement in his cricket career. Shikhar scored 187 runs from 174 balls, the fastest-ever century by any batsman on his Test debut. Additionally, after scoring back-to-back Test hundreds away in 2015, he joined Rahul Dravid and Sunil Gavaskar as the only Indian batters to do so. 
  • The southpaw made his IPL debut in 2008 with his home franchise Delhi Daredevils. In his IPL career so far, Dhawan has played for different franchises, including Mumbai Indians, Deccan Chargers, and Sunrisers Hyderabad. 
  • Currently, he is the captain of Punjab Kings and was bought by the Northern outfit at Rs 8.25 Cr in the IPL 2023 Auction. Among rare records, Dhawan, while playing for Delhi Capitals, became the first player in the league's history to hit consecutive centuries. 
  • In 2009, Dhawan started dating Melbourne-based Aesha Mukerji, an amateur kick-boxer, and later got married in 2012. In early 2014, the duo became parents of a son named Zoravar. However, after nine years of marriage, the couple decided to part ways in 2022.
