IPL 2018, MI vs SRH: Hits and Misses

#4 Miss: Shikhar Dhawan

Shikhar Dhawan couldn't give SRH the start they were looking for

After David Warner was ruled out of the IPL (banned by Cricket Australia), the pressure and the responsibility on Shikhar Dhawan certainly doubled. He started the tournament on a good note as well. He scored a very good 78 in the first game and followed it up with a fluent 45. He did fail against KKR in the third game before he was struck on the elbow and was out injured for SRH's previous match.

It was evident in the last game that SRH missed Dhawan and they received a boost as the 32-year-old left-hander was declared fit for this game. He got off the mark on the second delivery of the game with an inside-edge. In the next over, he managed to get a boundary to third man before an inside-edge thudded into his knee. The opener from Delhi looked in pain but recovered soon.

However, his innings was cut short as he inside-edged another ball but this time he dragged it onto his stumps. Dhawan managed just 5 and looked iffy in his 6-ball stay at the crease.
