We study the general evolution of spherical over-densities for thawing class of dark energy models. We model dark energy with scalar fields having canonical as well as non-canonical kinetic energy. For non-canonical case, we consider models where the kinetic energy is of the Born-Infeld Form. We study various potentials like linear, inverse-square, exponential as well as PNGB-type. We also consider the case when dark energy is homogeneous as well as the case when it is inhomogeneous and virializes together with matter. Our study shows that models with linear potential in particular with Born-Infeld type kinetic term can have significant deviation from the $\Lambda$CDM model in terms of density contrast at the time of virialization. Although our approach is a simplified one to study the nonlinear evolution of matter overdensities inside the cluster and is not applicable to actual physical situation, it gives some interesting insights into the nonlinear clustering of matter in the presence of thawing class of dark energy models.
