India cricketer Shikhar Dhawan announced his retirement from domestic and international cricket on Saturday. Dhawan last played for India in the ODI series against Bangladesh in December 2022 before losing his place to Shubman Gill.

The 38-year-old shared a long video message for his fans on his social media handles thanking them for their love and support throughout his career. "As I close this chapter of my cricketing journey, I carry with me countless memories and gratitude. Thank you for the love and support! Jai Hind!" he wrote.

Dhawan played 34 Tests, 167 ODIs, and 68 T20Is for India and racked up a total of 10,867 runs. In List A matches, Sikhar scored over 12,000 runs. With 24 centuries and 55 half-centuries, Dhawan played a key role in India's opening batting power for several years.

Famously known as Gabbar, Dhawan was good at the field as well with 130 catches in his international career. Even his Kabaddi-style celebration after taking a catch became popular among fans.
