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.

England Captain Jos Buttler's "Impact Sub" Dig After Harshit Rana Concussion Substitute Controversy

England captain Jos Buttler has taken a harsh dig at the Indian cricket team following the concussion substitute controversy in the fourth T20I in Pune. India all-rounder Shivam Dube got hit on his helmet on the penultimate delivery of the hosts' innings. He was checked by the physio before continuing to bat. Dube got run out on the very next ball which also happened to be the final ball of the Indian innings. During the innings break, the all-rounder was replaced by pacer Harshit Rana as a concussion substitute. The move sparked a huge debate as ICC rules state that a concussion substitute has to be a like-for-like replacement.
