Shikhar Dhawan, a senior batsman, stated that he has made a deliberate choice to raise his strike rate.
Shikhar Dhawan, the captain of IPL team Punjab Kings, stated on Wednesday that he has made a deliberate effort to raise his strike rate, particularly in the middle overs. In Guwahati against the Rajasthan Royals, he produced a game-winning innings of 86 runs in just 56 degrees, hitting nine boundaries and three sixes.
Shikhar Dhawan leads the Punjab Kings, who had a successful start to the 2023 IPL season with back-to-back wins. Dhawan has performed admirably in both games, particularly on Wednesday against the Rajasthan Royals. His highest tally to date for Punjab Kings is 86 from 56 balls. Irfan Pathan, a former all-rounder for the Indian cricket team, complimented the top-order batsman for his performance while observing that being pushed in and out of the national team must have had an effect on him.
Shikhar Dhawan is a senior player in the IPL and has been very reliable with the bat, according to Pathan, who said this on Star Sports. He is a very strong player with a very sharp mind, and this year he must establish himself as a skipper, which necessitates the use of his batting. Pathan added that he must have found it difficult to be in and out of the Indian cricket squad, and for that reason he would like to demonstrate that he is still the genuine article in Indian cricket.
