Dhawan also had a memorable season last year, in which he became the only player in the history of IPL to struck two back-to-back centuries. In 17 games, Dhawan smashed 618 runs at an average of 44.14 and a strike rate of 144.73.
Dhawan was one of the key reasons for DC's entry into the final in IPL 2020 in UAE, and Delhi fans will hope he can do the same wonders this season as well.
Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals on Tuesday announced wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant as the captain of the side for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 which gets underway from April 9.
Pant will step in as captain for the 14th edition of the tournament after regular skipper Shreyas Iyer hurt his left shoulder during the recently-concluded India-England ODI series.
