As all the cricketing activities are suspended across the globe due to this Coronavirus outbreak, all the cricketers are enjoying this break with their loved ones.

While they are home, some of them are entertaining their fans with Q&A sessions on social media. The left-handed India batsman Shikhar Dhawan was one of them as he answered some of his fans’ questions on Instagram.

"Can’t we give 21 days of our life to help the country", Dhawan urges people to embrace lockdown

While answering some questions, one of his fans asked him about his favorite batting partner. Now as Dhawan has batted a lot with his opening partner Rohit Sharma and also with skipper Virat Kohli, this question got a lot of his fans excited.

But the southpaw chose Rohit over Virat as the Shikhar-Rohit duo has had some of the best opening partnerships in 107 so far for India, scoring 4802 runs for the country which include 16-centuries and 14 half-centuries.

The swashbuckling opener was then asked about the name of most “entertaining” team member, he answered by taking Yuzvendra Chahal’s name.

The 34-year-old Delhi-lad then revealed the names of his childhood heroes which included Sachin Tendulkar, Brain Lara, Mathew Hayden, and Andrew Flower.
