10. Shikhar Dhawan

Shikhar Dhawan has been a constant presence in the list of top run-getters in the IPL history. He has scored 6617 runs in 217 games in the tournament with two centuries and 50 fifties to his name. He averages 35.39 and has a strike rate of 127.18. His best season with the bat was IPL 2020 when he scored 618 runs for Delhi Capitals with two centuries to his name.

Dhawan had a lean outing in IPL 2023 with 373 runs in 11 games as injuries and form issues hampered his game. But Dhawan is not someone who quits easily and expects the Punjab Kings captain to bring his A-game into the IPL 2024 tournament. Much onus will be on him to provide flying starts to the PBKS in the upcoming IPL season.
