The cricket fraternity hailed Shikhar Dhawan's infectious positivity and unshakable team spirit while emotional fans remembered his iconic thigh-five celebrations and thanked 'Gabbar' for his inspirational cricketing journey that ended on Saturday.
Dhawan, a premier toporder ODI batter in the post Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag and Sourav Ganguly era, announced his retirement two years after his final appearance in the national team.
He featured in 34 Tests, 167 ODIs and 68 T20Is.
It was Sehwag who Dhawan had replaced and the explosive opener of his times from Najafgarh took to X to pay his tribute.
