Shankar Geetha is a huge fan of Indian left-handed opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan. While Dhawan is currently busy in the ongoing IPL 2018 as he is playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), he recently met with Shankar and his family in Hyderabad.

Shankar is known as a huge fan of Shikhar Dhawan. Shankar hugely admires Dhawan as he regularly copies Dhawan’s hair and moustache style.

After the recent meeting, Shikhar posted the picture on his official Instagram account and mentioned him as his ‘biggest fan’. Dhawan also revealed that Shankar follows his style while his son follows Zoravar’s style(Dhawan’s son).

Dhawan wrote on his Instagram account, “@shankardhawan it was wonderful to meet you and your family today. Shankar, “my biggest fan” came all the way from Bangalore with his family to meet me. Apparently it was his first flight journey with his family and they came directly to our hotel from the airport early in the morning. He was sporting my style and his son, Zoravar’s style. It is so heartwarming and I truly feel humbled when my fans go to such lengths. Thank you Shankar and all my fans for your support. Love you all #lovemyfans #mybiggeststrength #fans #family”

Dhawan is currently one of the in-form Indian batsmen, specially in the limited-overs cricket. After performing superbly in the last few international series, Dhawan has also taken the important role for SRH in the ongoing IPL season.  Though he is not performing consistently at present, he is the second most runs scorer for SRH in this season. Dhawan has scored 185 runs with the average of 30.83 (strike-rate 131.20) including one half-century against Rajasthan Royals at Hyderabad (scored 78*).

With the help of their superb bowling unit, SRH currently dominating this tournament as they are presently on the top of the IPL 2018 points table. Playing 9 games in this season till the date, the 2016 IPL champions have won 7 games and have earned 14 points already.
