Revisiting Shikhar Dhawan's records and stats in international cricket, IPL
Opening batter Shikhar Dhawan announced his retirement via a video message posted on his social media accounts on Saturday
With 'Gabbar', as he is affectionately called by teammates and fans, calling time on his career, we revisit his record in international cricket as well as in the Indian Premier League
Dhawan retires with more than 10,000 international runs to his name, including 6,793 in ODIs
Dhawan's legacy, however, is that of being an absolute beast in ICC white-ball events, where he has scored 1,312 runs at an average of 50.46 including six centuries and four fifties
Dhawan also retires with his record of the highest score by an Indian on Test debut — 187 against Australia in Mohali in 2013 — still intact
In the IPL , Dhawan signs off as the second-highest run-scorer after Virat Kohli with 6,769 runs in 222 matches, including two centuries and 51 half-centuries
His consistency in the IPL was such that he scored 400-plus runs in a season nine times
