Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) opener Shikhar Dhawan met his most passionate fan—Shankar—in Hyderabad. Dhawan and his wife Ayesha Mukherjee posed for a photo with Shankar and his family. Shankar’s passion was such that he copied Dhawan’s hairstyle. Shankar’s fandom wasn’t limited to himself, his kid also donned Dhawan’s son Zoravar’s hairstyle.
Here’s what Dhawan posted on Instagram, thanking his biggest fan for supporting him and efforts he made to meet him —
Dhawan has not been in the best of forms after suffering an injury in the initial phase of the tournament. Despite that, he played a crucial role in the clash against Delhi Daredevils (DD) on May 6, sharing a partnership of 76 runs with Alex Hales giving SRH a decent start chasing a total of 164.

Dhawan scored 33 runs from 30 balls. He played himself in but got undone by a brilliant delivery from Amit Mishra that went past his defence. Surprisingly, he relied heavily on running between the wickets rather hitting than boundaries. His innings had 2 fours and 1 six.
