Dhawan is now the only batsman in the world to have scored at least two centuries at the Asia Cup, World Cup and the Champions Trophy.
In the 2015 World Cup where India had to settle with a semi-final finish after losing to Australia in the penultimate clash, Dhawan slammed two centuries.
In the ICC Champions trophy 2013, Dhawan had scored two stellar centuries to finish as the highest run-getter of the tournament with 363 runs in 5 matches at an extraordinary average of 90.75 and a strike rate over hundred. The 210-runs stand between Rohit and Dhawan is the highest by an Indian opening pair while chasing in ODIs, surpassing the unbeaten 201 between Gautam Gambhir and Virender Sehwag against New Zealand in 2009. The current Indian openers now have as many as 13 hundred-plus partnerships between them which is second to only Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly who had 21.
Dhawan is now the second on the list of most centuries by an Indian left-hand batsman. He surpassed Yuvraj Singh (14) with his 15th ODI hundred against Pakistan in Dubai. India after beating their arch-rivals for the second straight time will look to keep their winning run intact when they take on Afghanistan in their final Super Four game before playing the final.
