Unless he is injured or horribly out of form, chances of happening are very low.
Dhawan carries reputation of perfoming in ICC tournaments. Infact his absence at the top in 2019 WC was given as a biggest reason of our failure. As 2023 ODI WC seems to be the last ODI WC for Rohit, he is gonna pick up every possible experienced batter for Indian conditions.
Plus he's a leftie and hence TM will expect him to counter the left arm swing and spin, against which both Rohit and Kohli struggle when new to the crease.

 

 

KL managed Dhawan's absence in 2019 very well. Except for the SF all top4 failed!.

TM hasn't been able to figure out a person for the No.4 spot since Yuvraj left. Heck, they can make a XI with just the number of players who have been rotated in the No.4 spot since then

No he didn't. 

What was rahul's strike rate? 

It was in 70s right. 

Dhawan would have striked over 90+ like he usually did those days and would have performed against top team too

But it cost the game though. Rahul as a keeper can cost us games. T20s are okay as balls rarely come to you. In ODI you do get opportunities which you should grab.

They found one who has been consistent since 2019 but now their top 3 is not good enough.

Road Safety series is more interesting at this stage

At this stage, considering the age of this team, this *is* the road safety series.
