After missing five seasons of the Indian premier league (IPL), Punjab Kings' all-rounder Rishi Dhawan played his first match of this season against the Chennai Super Kings at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium. Dhawan was picked by the Kings at the mega auction for INR 55 Lakh, but due to a previous injury he could not make an earlier comeback.
On Monday, when the 32-year-old was taking his position to bowl, fans could not help but notice the safety shield he was wearing at that time. Reportedly, the Himachal Pradesh skipper had earlier suffered a nose injury during the Ranji Trophy, which is why he sported the gear as a means to prevent further injury.
