Shikhar Dhawan, the left-handed batter, is among the few who have made over 6000 runs in the Indian Premier League. He has been a part of the tournament since its inception and has represented a total of five teams so far. He is the Punjab Kings team captain in the ongoing season of the IPL. Dhawan has made 49 half-centuries and two centuries in the tournament.

Dhawan got his first tattoo at the age of 15 without telling his parents, and he has a lot of tattoos on his body. He has a sleeve tattoo on his right arm that features a variety of designs, including the figures of Lord Shiva, Baba Deep Singh, and Arjuna from Mahabharata.

On his left bicep, he has inked the words' Carpe Diem,' which means the desire to live in the present moment and not worry too much about the future. He has some tribal designs on his right shoulder and his back. Dhawan has a tattoo of a bird with a leafless tree on his left calf.

Dhawan started his IPL career in 2008 with Delhi Capitals and was transferred to Mumbai Indians in 2009. In 2011, now-defunct Deccan Chargers picked him up at the mega auction for 1.38 crore.

He found real success in IPL with Sunrisers Hyderabad and represented the franchise for six years before he was transferred to Delhi Capitals in 2019. He was released by Capitals before the mega auction of 2022 and was picked by Punjab Kings.
