Now 22, Dhawan says he’s become mature after facing the ups and downs of a cricket career at an early stage. He says he doesn’t get into needless contests while batting alongside skipper Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir.
He hasn’t thought of where he wants to be professionally at the end of the tournament, preferring to take it match by match. “I would love it if people buy Daredevils jerseys with my name on it,” Dhawan says. “That would be a dream come true.”
