“I’m so pleased with Shikhar Dhawan the way he’s been doing — he’s really making a wonderful platform for us as a batsman,” Iyer said. Although the Delhi Capitals lost to a resurgent Kings XI Punjab, Shikhar Dhawan was awarded Player of the Match. After having begun the tournament slowly, the left hander is currently in a rich vein of form. He became the first player in the IPL to score consecutive hundreds and his fourth fifty-plus score on the bounce was also his unbeaten 61-ball 106.
