Shikhar Dhawan Pays Surprise Visit To Pakistani Hindu Refugees, Gifts Them Portable Toilet And Cricket Kit

The Pakistani Hindu refugees staying near Majlis Metro Station in Delhi received a pleasant surprise on Saturday morning when India star Shikhar Dhawan paid them a visit. The cricket superstar visited the place to help the refugees during these tough times of pandemic.

Shikhar Dhawan gifted the locals portable toilet and also spent some time with them. The left-handed batsman also gifted the children cricket kits before leaving the refugee camp. According to report, he also motivated the children to play cricket and make a name for themselves.

After distributing the portable toilets and the cricket kit, he sat with the locals and interacted with them. The delighted locals also made sure to give Shikhar Dhawan a hero’s welcome.

Shikhar Dhawan, meanwhile, has not played for India since the Bengaluru ODI against Australia in March. He suffered a shoulder injury while fielding during that match and consequently missed the tour of New Zealand. He was named in the ODI team for the series against South Africa in March but the series was postponed in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

International cricket will finally resume later this month when England and West Indies lock horns in a Test series. The series will start from July 8 in Southampton. As far as India are concerned, the BCCI is yet to give any update on when will the team return to action.

As of now, the BCCI is completely focused on conducting the IPL which was scheduled to take place between March 29 and May 17. As per latest reports, the tournament could be held in UAE or Sri Lanka.
