In a video reel uploaded by Dhawan on Instagram, the southpaw was seen dressed in police uniform and played the role of a police personnel. He fought goons with the ‘Singham’ song running in the background. The goons were later seen surrendering to Dhawan. “Aali Re Aali! Aata Tujhi Baari Aali! Coming Soon For Something New,” Dhawan captioned the post.
Meanwhile, Dhawan, who would be leading Punjab Kings in IPL 2023, has been training hard ahead of the grueling season. The last time the India opener played in national colours was against Bangladesh in the ODIs in December 2022. He scored 7, 8 and 3 in three games. The 37-year-old is the second-highest run-getter in the history of IPL scoring 6244 runs in 206 games. He also has two centuries and 47 fifties to his name in IPL.
Meanwhile, the Punjab franchise has already been dented as their star batter Jonny Bairstow will not be joining the PBKS camp for the upcoming edition. Despite Bairstow not being present, the Kings hold a lot of power in their middle order and the addition of England’s ace all-rounder Sam Curran will also help Punjab’s chances in the tournament.
PBKS Final Squad for IPL 2023: Shikhar Dhawan (c), Shahrukh Khan, Jonny Bairstow, Prabhsimran Singh, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Jitesh Sharma, Raj Bawa, Rishi Dhawan, Liam Livingstone, Atharva Taide, Arshdeep Singh, Nathan Ellis, Baltej Singh, Kagiso Rabada, Harpreet Brar, Rahul Chahar, Sam Curran, Sikanadar Raza, Harpreet Bhatia, Vidwath Kaverappa, Shivam Singh, and Mohit Rathe.
