Another Indian cricket fan regarded Dhawan as India’s greatest player in ODIs. “You are a very good player, from IPL to playing in every format, it is amazing. In ODIs, you are the greatest player of the format, even though you are not being given chances. But now you have given your answer to the selectors,” the post was captioned.
