After his brilliant performance in IPL 2024, the doors of the Indian team opened for Abhishek Sharma and he made his debut in the Zimbabwe series. After this Abhishek did not look back. So far this young player has played 8 T20I matches and scored 159 runs. He played some good innings in the recently concluded Emerging Asia Cup, but not such that he could not come into the limelight.

It is noteworthy that due to Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal will not be able to play in the T20 series against South Africa. Therefore, in his absence, Abhishek Sharma will open the innings with Sanju Samson. Meanwhile, while talking about the team combination, Aakash Chopra said that Abhishek Sharma is still yet to make his mark in international cricket.

He also says that the upcoming series against South Africa could prove to be “do or die” for Abhishek Sharma, as Jaiswal and Gill will be available for the next T20 series against England. In such a situation, if he fails against South Africa, he will be out of the team.

It’s do or die time for Abhishek Sharma – Aakash Chopra

Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel, I think India has two or three big questions. There will be pressure on Abhishek Sharma and some pressure will also be on Sanju Samson. However, Sanju had scored a century in the last match. Therefore I would not say that there is any pressure on Sanju.

He further said that, however, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill will be back, so whenever you get a chance to open, you should score a lot of runs. So it is important for them. This is do or die time for Abhishek Sharma, because after this when England T20 series will be played at home ground, if you do not score runs here then you will definitely be dropped.

Let us tell you that Abhishek Sharma had scored a century against Zimbabwe at the beginning of the year, but since then he has been struggling with the bat. In the last four matches he has scored only 49 runs.
