Dhawan was injured during the match against Australia in the World Cup 2019 and then walked out of Team India for a long time. He came back but could not score more runs. He was then dropped from the team and turned to domestic cricket. He got injured again while playing domestic cricket and was away from cricket again for a long time. He had a knee injury and a total of 27 stitches. During this time he did not get a chance to play in many series.
