Dhawan had a great season in the Indian Premier League 2020. He finished as the tournament's second-highest run-scorer with 618 runs, helping his team Delhi Capitals reach the final of the tournament for the first time.
He also became the first batsman to score back-to-back centuries in the history of the IPL.
Dhawan then went to Australia with India, where the visitors first lost the ODI series 2-1.

The opener has been left out of India's squad for the first two Tests against England. However, he is expected to play a big role when the two sides meet for five T20Is and three ODIs after the Test series.
