Shikhar Dhawan retired from international cricket on August 24, 2024. The stylish left-hander amassed 10,867 runs in 288 innings across all formats for India. Dhawan played a crucial role in India's victory during the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy, where he earned the Player of the Tournament award.
"The most difficult phase of my career, there was a time when I was really desperate. I knew that if I don't score runs I would be out of the team. We had a Test match in Kolkata, against New Zealand. First innings I got out, second innings I went out and got hit by a ball by Trent Boult, it broke my arm," said Dhawan.
