Asked to pick his most special knock, Dhawan chose the match—winning hundred against Australia in the 2019 World Cup.

Mardo walli feeling aayi (it was a big daddy innings),” Dhawan said.

Dhawan had slammed 117 off 109 balls against the defending champion at The Oval on June 10 as India won by 36 runs. That turned out to be the final tie he played as he was ruled out with a thumb fracture for the remainder of the competition.
