Good season for Shikhar Dhawan
IPL 2022 didn’t bring much success to Punjab Kings (PBKS), but Shikhar Dhawan was spectacular for the team throughout the tournament. Dhawan scored 460 runs in 14 matches with an average of 38.33 and a strike rate of 122.67 for PBKS in this current season of IPL. He scored three half-centuries this season and was Punjab Kings’ leading run-scorer. His best score was 88 not out in the season. The same as past few seasons, he looked consistent and was among the top candidates for the orange cap list.

He also broke multiple records in his debut season for Punjab Kings. In the world’s most successful and popular T20 league, Dhawan became the first batsman to score 1000 runs against defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK). He is only the second batsman after Virat Kohli to cross the 6,000 runs mark in the IPL. The 36 year old is also the first batter to hit 800 boundaries in the history of IPL. Even though Dhawan had an exciting season in the IPL 2022, Punjab Kings failed to qualify for the playoffs. Punjab Kings came in sixth place in the IPL 2022 points table.
Despite his impressive performance in the IPL 2022, Dhawan has not been able to earn a spot in the team for the T20 series against South Africa. He last played in a T20 International match against Sri Lanka in 2021.
