The current lockdown has seen people restricted indoors with many picking up new hobbies. Energetic India opener Shikhar Dhawan, on Tuesday, 🍒revealed he is trying his hand at playing the flute and honing his overall musical skills.
“Music gives you peace, and everybody should try to learn how to play a musical instrument now, especially because we have so much time to spend at home due to the lockdown,” Dhawan said during his interaction with teammate Shreyas Iyer on Instagram Live.
Gabbar also played the flute on Iyer’s request.
Dh꧋🎶awan further named Bollywood actresses Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra as his favourites.
Interestingly, Kareena wants her little son Taimur to follow🗹 his paternal grand𒉰father Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi and become a cricketer.
W𒊎hen asked to pick his most special knock, Dhawan chose the match-winning hundred against Australia in the 2019 World Cup.
“Mardo walli feeling aayi (it was a big daddy innings),” the Delhi-born said.
D💦hawan had smashed 117 runs off 109 deliveries agܫainst the Aussies at The Oval as India won the match by 36 runs. That turned out to be the final game for the southpaw as he was ruled out with a thumb fracture for the remainder of the tournament.
India crashed out in the semi-fin꧟als, losing to Kane Williamson-led New Zealand.
