Opening together has made our bond stronger, says Prithvi on Dhawan

Team India opener Prithvi Shaw has said he shares a special bond with fellow opener and captain for Sri Lanka series Shikhar Dhawan as they spend a lot of time together.

Prithvi Shaw’s quick knock of 43 from 24 balls was one of the highlights of the first ODI of the three-match series here at the R Premadasa Stadium on Sunday. Shikhar Dhawan (86*) and Ishan Kishan (59) starred with the bat as India defeated Sri Lanka by seven wickets and gained a 1-0 lead in the series.

Shikhar Dhawan and I open together for Delhi Capitals. Although we were good friends before Delhi Capitals, but opening together has made our bond stronger. Off the field, we used to spend a lot of time together, whether it was having dinner together or chilling in his room, Prithvi Shaw said on Star Sports’ show Follow The Blues.
