#3 Success at the U-19 World Cup
The U-19 World Cup has, over the years, been a portent for many a run machine. Dhawan has 16 centuries and as many as 24 fifties in first-class cricket. But the southpaw enjoyed his moment of fame in the U-19 World Cup. Shikhar Dhawan was the highest scorer in the 2004 U-19 World Cup held in Bangaldesh scoring 505 runs that included three centuries at an average of 84.16
