With the IPL currently on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic, cricketers have had the chance to spend time with their families for a lengthy period, and Dhawan believes it has come as a blessing in disguise.

Dhawan's move to Delhi also changed Delhi Capital's fortunes as they made the play-offs for the first time after seven years and finished third, going down to Chennai Super Kings in the play-offs.

Rohit and Dhawan have batted in 107 innings as openers, scoring 4802 runs, only behind the pair of Sachin and Ganguly in terms of most runs scored by an opening combination

In a conversation with Mayank Agarwal, Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan opened up on their off-the-field relationship.

Rohit and Dhawan share great friendship and understanding both on and off the field and the camaraderie between the two has always been praised by others

Rohit Sharma has been nominated by the BCCI for the country's highest sporting honour - the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna.

Dhawan recalled his memory from 2015 World Cup clash against Pakistan in Adelaide and said someone from the crowd told him that he will be dismissed after making 15 runs, but eventually, he slammed crucial 79 runs.

Notably, the pair have opened together in 41 Test innings scoring 1748 runs ar 43.70 with three-century stands. They are the third-highest Indian opening pair in Tests

Dhawan, speaking to R Ashwin in the latest episode of Reminisce with Ash on Instagram, admitted that he has plenty of options in hand after retiring from the game

Kohli posted a heartwarming note and wished good health and happiness for everyone.

Dhawan is also optimistic of the 13th season of the Indian Premier League taking place. IPL 2020, which was slated to begin from March 29 onwards, has been suspended indefinitely by BCCI owing to the virus.

Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan took to his official social media profiles to write a heartwarming post for his wife Ayesha.

The photo proved that the genetic things work in Dhawan and Zorawar's case as they almost look carbon copy of each other in the viral collage.

Earlier in the day, Gautam Gambhir, Yuvraj Singh and Harbhajan Singh hit back at Afridi for his controversial Kashmir comment.

Dhawan was candid about his unwillingness to take strike first up when a speed merchant is operating at the other end, calling it more of a "mental" thing.

Shikhar Dhawan chose the best captain he played under, and also talked about his competition with KL Rahul for the opening spot in the Indian team.

The BCCI office-bearers are expected to announce the final nominations for the men's and women's categories later this month but the Gujarat pacer's stupendous performance in the last four years makes him the most worthy candidate.

Dhawan on Saturday posted a video on Instagram where he showcased his lockdown period life with wife Aesha Dhawan with a Bollywood song in the background.

Together, the pair has managed 4902 runs in 107 ODI innings at 45.30 an average and 16 century-plus stands. They are in fact the second highest run-scoring opening pair for India in ODIs after Sourav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar. 

With people staying at home amid coronavirus lockdown, reports of domestic violence have also come out a lot more in recent times.
