5 milestones that can be achieved by Indian players in the ODI series against Windies

England & India Net Sessions

#4 Shikhar Dhawan cornering 5000 ODI runs

Shikhar Dhawan is set to achieve the 5000-run mark in ODIs

Another top order batsman who is cornering a milestone in ODI cricket is Shikhar Dhawan. Fondly known as Gabbar, Shikhar has seen two extremes in his cricketing journey - red ball cricket and white ball cricket. The former where he has struggled considerably, and the latter where he has been the best in the business. Thus after having been ignored for the Test series against West Indies, Dhawan will look to make the most of the ODI series against West Indies.

Gabbar is just 177 runs minus the 5000-run mark in ODI cricket. Amassing these runs, Shikhar will become only the 13th Indian to go past the 5000-run mark in ODIs. He also has 25 fifties and 15 centuries against his name in ODIs. Besides, he has also been one of the fastest batsmen to have scored 15 centuries in ODI cricket.
