The India cricket team is touring Australia to name the best squad in a 5-match Test series. Shikhar Dhawan, who started his career in the senior national team with the series against Australia in 2010, did not miss the opportunity to support players.

Much to the fans' regret, Shikhar Dhawan announced his retirement from cricket this summer, so he will not help the Indian squad on the pitch. However, his vast popularity will allow him to continue popularizing this sport with the support of 1xBat Sporting Lines.
