Virat Kohli's All-Time T20I Record Broken, Abhishek Sharma Makes History With Whirlwind 135

India batter Abhishek Sharma registered his name in history books with a majestic 54-ball 135 in the 5th and final T20I of the series against England on Sunday. The left-handed opening batter has always shown the intent of playing such extraordinary innings and he executed it to perfection at Wankhede this time. As Abhishek's inspiring knock helped India secure a whopping 150-run victory against Jos Buttler-led tourists, the young opener went on to break several records. One of the biggest records that Abhishek broke, courtesy of his century against England, was Virat Kohli's milestone of scoring the most number of runs in a T20I series against England for India.

Abhishek Sharma's Epic 'Will Send Chappal' Reply To Yuvraj Singh's Post After 54-Ball 135

India have unearthed another stunning T20 talent in the form of Abhishek Sharma. After a topsy-turvy start to the T20I series against England, Abhishek showed once again why he is so highly rated in the shortest format. The opening batter hit a mind-boggling 54-ball 135 as India secured a stunning 150-run victory against England in the 5th and final T20I of the series in Mumbai on Sunday. Seeing Abhishek teach the Brendon McCullum-coached England a new 'Bazball' lesson, the batter's mentor Yuvraj Singh shared a worthy post, praising the southpaw.

"India Played With 12 Players": England Great Cries Foul As Hosts Secure 4-1 Series Win

Team India wrapped up a brilliant T20I series victory against England with a gigantic 150-run win in the 5th and final match at Wankhede on Sunday. In the process, India managed to seal a 4-1 series win against Jos Buttler's men. However, former England captain Michael Vaughan doesn't agree with the 4-1 scoreline, saying it should've been 2-2 as India 'played 12 men' in the 4th T20I. The remark from Vaughan comes in the wake of the 'concussion substitute' controversy that saw Shivam Dube being replaced by Harshit Rana in the penultimate match of the series.

Abhishek Sharma lit up the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday as he scored a scintillating 135 off just 54 balls to help India defeat England by a massive 150 runs in the final T20I of a five-match series. The 24-year-old Abhishek, who made his First-Class debut in 2017 for Punjab and even played the 2018 U-19 World Cup, reached the triple figures in just 37 balls - the second fastest by an Indian. India great Harbhajan Singh, who also hails from Punjab, saw Abhishek Sharma rise up through the ranks from a young age.

"It's All Because Of Him": Abhishek Sharma's Glorious Tribute To Yuvraj Singh After Wankhede Heroics

In a format as fickle as T20 cricket in which a batter is destined for more failures than success, India's newest power-hitter Abhishek Sharma has learnt quite early that self-belief and fearlessness are essential to increase the probability of a favourable outcome. It has not yet been a full year since the Punjab batter arrived at the international stage on the back of high promise in domestic cricket, including an immensely successful IPL with Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2024. But at only 24, Abhishek has begun threatening records which took several years for others to create.

Asked About Competition With Gill And Jaiswal, Abhishek Sharma Gives Blunt Answer

After firing a record-breaking ton in the fifth T20I at the Wankhede Stadium, Abhishek Sharma downplayed the competition for the opening slot between him, Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal. With Gill and Jaiswal being cooped up in the ODI and Test formats, Abhishek has been the preferred candidate for the opening slot. After an underwhelming run in South Africa, the young southpaw made the most of the opportunity by turning the tides against England. After making a promising start to the series with a belligerent 79(34), Abhishek stored his best for the last T20I of the five-match affair. He brought thunder down at the Wankhede with a swashbuckling performance, toppling numerous records on his way to 135(54), second fastest century for India.

"High-Risk, High-Reward Cricket": Head Coach Gautam Gambhir Clears India's T20I Approach

While establishing the intention of hitting 250-plus scores regularly in T20Is, India head coach Gautam Gambhir lavished praise on his players for embracing "high-risk, high-reward cricket", which allowed them to fetch a 4-1 series win over England. India's ideology to play an aggressive brand of cricket, irrespective of the situation, was evident in the previous three T20Is against England. In Pune, England fast bowler Saqib Mahmood left India in tatters by clinching three wickets and topping it up with a maiden in the second over.
