First Raina, now Dhawan! Canada Super 60 is becoming like a reunion of Indian cricket legends. Great to see our heroes getting opportunities even after their international careers. The T10 format suits Dhawan's aggressive batting style perfectly.

While I'm happy for Dhawan, I wish BCCI would give more opportunities to senior players in domestic cricket. Our veterans have so much to offer but they have to go abroad to play. Still, all the best to him! 👍

Dhawan, Raina, Yuvi - feels like 2011 World Cup nostalgia! These players have so much experience and charisma. Great move by Canada Super 60 to bring cricket to new audiences with familiar faces. Hope this helps grow the sport in North America.

The global expansion of cricket is fantastic to see. Having star players like Dhawan in new markets will definitely attract more fans. The 60-ball format seems like a smart innovation - shorter than T20 but more substantial than T10.
