I will be good in commentator: Shikhar Dhawan

Dhawan also stated that he loves playing the flute and is also a big music enthusiast. He also stressed on the fact that cricketers usually do not get the time to perfect their hobbies. But according to Dhawan, everyone should have a hobby, that helps in keeping your mind calm. It will be a treat for everyone to listen Dhawan play the musical instrument. 

“I have a lot of options. I have a flute If I want to become a motivational speaker, then I will take my flute alongside me. I have so many tools to play around with”.

“I used to listen to flute music, even if someone plays on the road. I used to be there and wait and finish listening. I thought I would learn something. I started taking online classes. It’s been 5 years and I feel happy now. I enjoy playing it, as cricketers, we say we don’t have time but we do have free time. Everyone should have a hobby. It keeps your mind calm, that is very important”, Dhawan said to Ashwin.
