Abhishek Sharma Overtakes Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli For Big Record After Superb Knock vs England In 1st T20I
Abhishek Sharma delivered a stunning performance in the first T20I against England on Wednesday, smashing a blistering 20-ball half-century while hitting the most sixes by an Indian in a T20I run chase, according to Wisden. The match, held at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, saw India's spinners dominate the first innings, bundling England out for just 132. Varun Chakravarthy (3/23), and Axar Patel (2/22), kept England's batters under pressure, with only England skipper Jos Buttler offering resistance. Buttler played a lone hand with a 44-ball 68 before falling to Chakravarthy.
Hardik Pandya's Key 'Responsibility' Revealed After England T20I Win: "Did The Same..."
With the amount of freedom that the Indian T20I team is being offered, captain Suryakumar Yadav said, his side wants to play a "bit differently" from the way they played in the T20 World Cup 2024. The calendar year changed, but India's threatening approach in the T20Is remained the same. After ending 2024 on a high note, India picked up the momentum and kickstarted T20Is in 2025 with a bang. With 'Bazball' taking over white-ball cricket, India's 'Gamball' ensured England's new era began on a disappointing note. Brendon McCullum watched his side getting blown away by T20 World Cup champions in his first T20I as England's white-ball head coach.
AB De Villiers Hopes BCCI Allows Indian Players To Compete In SA20
South African great Ab de Villiers hopes the BCCI will allow Indian players to take part in the SA20 in the near future as it will only raise the profile of the young franchise-based league. Dinesh Karthik is set to become the first Indian cricketer to compete in the SA20 but that was only made possible when he announced his international and domestic retirement last year. The BCCI doesn't allow active players to take part in overseas leagues and as of now, the only way to play events outside India is by calling time on your career at home. Having said that, there is a growing trend of cricketers taking retirement in India to try their luck in the burgeoning overseas competitions.
