Shikhar Dhawan

India would expect a better approach from skipper Shikhar Dhawan and young Shubman Gill in the Powerplay overs when the team clashes with New Zealand in the do-or-die second One-Day International in Hamilton on Sunday.

Exactly 11 months are left for ICC World Cup 2023 in India, and the New Zealand ODI series starting on Friday in Auckland will give the team an initial idea about some of the middle-order slots and also the bowling arsenal in the Men in Blue's armoury.

Regular skipper Rohit Sharma, star batter Virat Kohli, opener KL Rahul, keeper-batter Dinesh Karthik and off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin have been rested for the New Zealand tour.

Cricketer Shikhar Dhawan is all set for his Bollywood debut with Sonakshi Sinha and Huma Qureshi-starrer ‘Double XL’. In a recent interview, Dhawan spoke about how acting came naturally to him.

The ICC Rankings were updated on Wednesday. Suryakumar Yadav remains in second place in T20Is, and Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have dropped spots in ODIs.

A surprise cameo by Shikhar Dhawan is planned for the forthcoming comedic drama Double XL. The movie stars Sonakshi Sinha and Huma Qureshi and tells the tale of two plus-sized women pursuing their goals.

India has travelled to Zimbabwe to play three ODIs from Thursday. Shikhar Dhawan will be KL Rahul's deputy in the series, while he has revealed that he constantly shares his experience with the youngsters in the side.

Shikhar Dhawan has successfully worked as a part-time captain and an opener for Team India. He has affirmed that he wants to be an asset for the side and not a liability.

India's squad for three ODIs against Zimbabwe next month has been announced. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are unavailable, with Shikhar Dhawan to lead, while Deepak Chahar returns.
