Let us tell you that after the end of the 5th T20 match between Zimbabwe and India, in a post-match discussion with Sony Sports Network, Abhishek said – Four-five of us watched the final. It was one of those special moments. When you play against Pakistan and it is the final, it is always special for you. So, many congratulations to my mentor.
It is worth noting that Abhishek Sharma has learned the tricks of cricket under the supervision of Yuvraj Singh, who was one of the deadly batsmen of his time.

Let us tell you that in the tournament, Abhishek scored a total of 484 runs in 16 matches played at an average of 32.26 and a strike rate of 204.21.
So, after this amazing season of IPL, he was selected in Team India for the T20 series of the Zimbabwe tour, and in his second match itself, Abhishek showed his ability by scoring a century in 46 balls.
