IND vs ENG: Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan enjoys “quality downtime” along with others. See pics

Shikhar Dhawan, who starred with the bat for India in the One Day International (ODI) series against England, enjoyed some “quality downtime” ahead of the second match against the visitors. India will take on England in the second ODI at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Friday. On the eve of the game, Dhawan posted some pictures with his India teammates. In one photo, the left-handed opener can be seen with his arms outstretched. The image also stars Rohit Sharma, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal and his wife Dhanashree Verma.

In the next image, Dhawan can be seen laughing with Shardul.

Dhawan scored 98 off 106 balls in the first ODI against England, helping the hosts win 317 out of five matches.

Dhawan knocked out 11 balls with two fours and two sixes.

While the batsmen fired for the hosts in the series openers, Shardul was once again energetic with the ball for India under crunch conditions.

Promoted

Pacer changed things for India by removing Eoin Morgan and Jose Butler in the same over.

A win on Friday would seal the series for India while England are struggling with injuries, having to fire a gun to stay alive after losing the first game on Tuesday.
