Shikhar Dhawan will miss the first three matches of the upcoming ODI series against Australia to be with his wife who has to undergo a surgery.
The left-handed batsman on Sunday took to Twitter and made another gesture of love for his wife. Dhawan uploaded a picture of the duo with the caption, "Glad to be here with my wife. Will be her strength at this moment of time. hope surgery is going to go well in the coming few days."
Dhawan married Ayesha Mukherjee on October 30, 2012. Many fans and well-wisher posted their best wishes to Dhawan and Ayesha.
Earlier, the 31-year-old had missed the last ODI and T20 match against Sri Lanka earlier this month as he flew back to India to attend to his ailing mother. Dhawan later had uploaded a photo with his mother and captioned it as, "Mom is recovering... Her health is much better than before. Thank you every1 fr your support." In Dhawan's absence, it is more than likely that Ajinkya Rahane will open the innings for India along with Rohit Sharma.
