Shikhar Dhawan has tweeted a throwback picture of himself with his long time on-field partner and Indian opener Rohit Sharma. Gabbar has shared the beautiful picture with an equally beautiful caption which reads, “Yaari bhi ki yaari bhi nibhayi, Khoob saare runs ki paari bhi nibhayi.. Gabbar aur Hitman.” See the tweet below.

The highest opening partnership runs in a career

Gabbar aka Dhawan and Hitman aka Rohit are in the top five of highest opening partnership in the international cricket category. The duo has made 4802 runs in just 107 innings which settles them on No.4 position in the above category.

The highest score both have made is 210 runs which is also the second-highest in the list after legendary Indian cricketers Saurav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar. The other three pairs in descending orders are Saurav Ganguli and Sachin Tendulkar (6609), Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden (5372), and C Greenidge and D Haynes (5150).

India is walking through its darkest phase in the absence of Dhawan and Rohit

India lost its opening test against the Kiwis by 10 wickets but the pressure was already built earlier when it was clean swiped in the three-match ODI series. The whole scenario once again proved that we don’t have better opening partners other than Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan. Their absence showed how incompetent the team is.

Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma

Shikhar Dhawan by far is one of the most explosive left-handed openers to play for India. The southpaw has the ability to score some big hundreds. On the contrary, Rohit Sharma is the most talented world-class opener the India team has. However, because of their injury issue, they have been out from the game for some time now and their absence has affected the team in a bad way.

But the good news for the fans is that Shikhar Dhawan has announced his return in the game after his complete fitness. Rohit Sharma is also likely to make a comeback in the upcoming IPL 2020.
