Former Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan, known for his playful banter on and off the field, recently left a lighthearted comment on Ravindra Jadeja‘s latest Instagram post, much to the amusement of fans. Jadeja, who has been enjoying some downtime following India’s successful 2024 T20 World Cup campaign, shared a series of photos with his mare on Instagram, captioning them, “She’s very good at posing #poser.”
Dhawan, ever the witty character, was quick to respond with a cheeky comment, “Better than you,” poking fun at Jadeja’s posing skills. The exchange, which was all in good humor, quickly caught the attention of their followers, sparking a wave of reactions and further highlighting the camaraderie between the two former teammates.
Jadeja, who played a crucial role in India’s T20 World Cup victory, announced his retirement from T20 Internationals the day after the final, ending his career in the shortest format on a high. The 35-year-old all-rounder, however, was not part of India‘s squad for the subsequent ODI series against Sri Lanka, which India lost 2-0.
Meanwhile, Dhawan, who retired from all forms of international and domestic cricket on August 24, 2024, reflected on his journey with pride. In his retirement message, he expressed gratitude for his long and fulfilling career, saying, “It’s important to turn the page to move forward in life… I am leaving with peace in my heart that I played so long for India.”
As Dhawan steps away from the game, his legacy as one of India’s most prolific openers remains intact. Over his illustrious career, he played 34 Tests, 167 ODIs, and 68 T20Is, accumulating 10,867 runs, including 24 centuries.
