Retired shikhar dhawan

Retired Shikhar Dhawan: Shikhar Dhawan has drawn the curtain on his illustrious cricket career but the opening batter remains the multiple record-holder in international cricket.

Dhawan, who made his India debut in 2010, became the vital cog of Men in Blue's top order along with Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the white-ball formats. The southpaw's career flourished as an India opener pairing with Rohit and he went on to become the second-fastest Indian to complete 6,000 ODI runs. He took 140 innings to reach the milestone figure in the 50-over cricket. Kohli was the fastest to achieve the feat in 136 innings.

Dhawan ended his ODI career with 6793 runs in 167 matches including 17 centuries and 39 half-centuries. His average in the format stands at 44.11.
