This is also the veteran\u2019s highest count in a single IPL season with previous run score being 559 in the IPL.<\/p>\n<p>However, Shikhar Dhawan failed out on scoring his third hundreds in the IPL 2020 which would have made him the only 2nd batsman to have made 3 or more hundreds in a single edition of the IPL league. RCB\u2019S skipper Virat Kohli has more than 2 hundreds in one IPL edition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have been scoring five hundred runs over the last 4 years. All the seasons are my best seasons, in that case. But it\u2019s special because I scored two centuries and two ducks, which I never did. Happy that I can perform consistently and provide a great start to my team, great platform to my team.<\/p>\n<p>As far as I am concerned, all the seasons are good for me. I have been playing with a good mindset this season as well,\u201d Shikhar Dhawan said in a virtual media press conference ahead of the playoffs stage.<\/p>\n<p>Shikhar Dhawan with 603 runs in 16 innings has currently become the 2nd highest run-getter in the IPL 2020. He also scored his fastest IPL fifty against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2nd qualifier of the IPL 2020.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shikhar Dhawan slams more than 600 runs in IPL 2020 making it his highest in a single edition of the league.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":74,"featured_media":39518,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[837,587,102],"class_list":["post-18802","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ipl","tag-dc","tag-delhi-capitals","tag-shikhar-dhawan"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18802","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/74"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18802"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18802\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39518"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18802"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18802"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18802"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
