During the interview, Shikhar Dhawan was asked how was the experience of captaining Sunrisers in IPL 2014. In response to this question, he said, I still think that you should be given a full season for captaincy. Dhawan said, if I had known that the captaincy of Sunrisers was being given for half the season, I would have refused. I was not doing well as a batsman that season. Perhaps the team management must have felt that I am under pressure. I felt like it doesn’t matter but I accepted his decision at that time.
