“The Shers are back roaring in their den!,” Dhawan captioned his Instagram post on Saturday.
Dhawan was named PBKS captain following the IPL 2023 Auction, in which they spent a whopping INR 20 crore. The team’s bid of INR 18.5 crore for Sam Curran made him the most expensive player to be sold at the auction. While Sikandar Raza was among the top players acquired by the team, they kept a large number of players acquired during the IPL 2022 mega-auction.
