Dhawan, who announced his decision to retire via a video post on social media, went on to thank all those who made a difference in her career.
“So many coaches have played a part in my career. Duncan Fletcher, Sanjay Bangar, Vikram Rathour, Rahul Dravid, Ravi Shastri. Then all the fielding coaches, batting coaches. I am thankful to all of them who worked on me.
“Even the NCA (National Cricket Academy) has played such a huge role, understood how training and rehab is done whenever I got injured. And a big thank you to the BCCI as well,\u201d Dhawan added.<\/p>\n
