Ravi Shastri On Shikhar Dhawan Team India opener Shikhar Dhawan has been away from the field for a long time. Even though Dhawan is running out of the team at the moment, it is not brush off that he has won Team India many matches on his own.
Dhawan had a major contribution in making India the champion in the 2013 Champions Trophy as well, but he is constantly ignore by selectors.
He recently told that he keeps himself fit so that he is always ready to play whenever he gets a chance. Dhawan did not get a chance in a single series before the Asia Cup.
He did not get a place in the team for the Asian Games and Ireland series as well. Meanwhile, former Indian coach Ravi Shastri has given a big statement regarding this opener.

Actually, Team India’s former head coach Ravi Shastri while talking to Star Sports said that “Shikhar Dhawan is not given the credit he deserves. He is a wonderful player. When we lost in the semi-finals of the World Cup in the year 2019, the team missed him a lot”.
In World Cup 2019, Dhawan was injured after the initial phase, after which he had to be out of the team. Shastri further said that having a left-handed batsman in the top order can give a lot of advantages to the team. When the ball swings, it comes in for a right-handed batsman, but goes out for a left-handed batsman and it is much easier for the batsman to score runs.

Ravi Shastri regarding the Indian batting order for Asia Cup 2023 & World Cup 2023
Ravi Shastri spoke about the importance of having 2 dashing left-handers in the top 7 of the Indian batting line-up for the upcoming tournaments. He said that there are two places in the top seven where I think two left-handed batsmen should come.
This is where the selectors come into play because they are watching and they know which players are attractive. If Tilak Verma is attractive, bring him in or if Jaiswal is attractive, then bring him in, but keep two such batsmen at the top.
