Dhawan is celebrating his 33rd birthday.

Shikhar Dhawan is currently out of the Test team. Dhawan could not come up with impressive batting display on the tour on England as he scored 162 runs in the eight innings and then he was subsequently dropped from the multi-day format. However, he was able to turn the tables in the Asia Cup. Furthermore, he had a fine T20I series against Australia and was adjudged the Man of the series.

Dhawan scored a blistering knock of 76 runs in the first T20I against Australia off just 42 balls. However, his knock went in vain as India lost the first T20I. Moreover, Dhawan once again gave a blistering start in the final and third T20I which helped India in levelling the series.
