According to Bangar, it will take 9 to 10 days for Dhawan to recover completely. In such a situation, if he is out even for a week, he will not be able to play in the next two matches of the team. Punjab has to play against Mumbai Indians on 18 April and Gujarat Titans on 21 April.
In the press conference after the defeat against Rajasthan Royals, Sanjay Bangar said, 'He has a shoulder injury, so he is likely to be out for at least a few days.
