Abhishek Sharma scored one hundred and thirteen from thirty-eight balls as India chased two hundred to beat New Zealand by six wickets in Wellington on Tuesday. The left-hander reached his century off thirty-five deliveries and struck eleven sixes. India completed the chase in thirteen point two overs with forty balls remaining and secured an unassailable three-nil lead in the five-match series.
CricHubb Take
Yuvraj Singh, Abhishek's mentor, wrote that he himself could not make a hundred off thirty or thirty-four balls. The remark highlights how the opener's scoring rate now exceeds even the standards set by previous generations of Indian T20 batters.
