Shikhar Dhawan is in fine form

Shikhar Dhawan is one of the world's best players when it comes to the limited-overs format. His ability to score quick runs in the starting overs of the match is incomparable.

Dhawan has been one of the most consistent batsmen in the IPL. He was amongst the Top 5 run scorers in both the 2016 and 2017 seasons, but on both of these occasions he was struggling with his form while going into the IPL.

This season is a different story altogether. Dhawan is high on confidence and in sublime form. He was India's second highest run scorer in the ODI series against South Africa and India's highest run scorer in the recently concluded Nidahas Trophy.

Dhawan is a team player and when he scores, more often than not his team comes out on top. Dhawan's good form and self-confidence make him a solid candidate for the Orange Cap this season.
