Abhishek Sharma: Abhishek Sharma's entry in Team India did not seem to be possible for long now. A sample of this was seen in the first T20 match against South Africa.
The career of Abhishek, who has played T20 for India, now seems to be coming to an end and it does not seem that he will be able to play the T20 World Cup 2026 tournament now? Let's know why?
Abhishek Sharma flopped in the first T20
In the first T20 match against South Africa, everyone had high expectations from Abhishek Sharma that he would play at least one big innings today but it did not happen. Abhishek disappointed everyone today too. This batsman has probably not been able to get out of the IPL mindset yet and that is why he is failing. He is always losing his wicket in the pursuit of giving a fast start.
When Abhishek scored a century against Zimbabwe, it seemed that India has got a great opener in the form of Rohit Sharma, but now it seems that this opener batsman will also be out of the T20 World Cup 2026. In today's match, he got out for just 7 runs.
Abhishek Sharma has been a flop in the last 5 innings
It is worth noting that Abhishek Sharma has been a flop in not one or two but in the last 5 innings. After scoring a century, he scored a total of 24 runs in 2 matches against Zimbabwe, and 35 runs in three matches against Bangladesh, while only 7 runs came off his bat against South Africa today. In T20 International, Abhishek has been able to score only 159 runs in 8 matches. In such a situation, if the situation remains the same, then this series can be the last series for him because Jaiswal may not be playing T20 but he can make a comeback if needed.
Many openers are in the queue
Let us tell you that apart from Jaiswal, Ishan Kishan, Rituraj Gaikwad and Prabhsimran Singh are such players who have the power to replace Abhishek Sharma in Team India. Ishan and Gaikwad have already made their debut while Prabhsimran is yet to get a chance. Along with this, limited overs format vice-captain Shubman Gill is also in the queue. Just like they made a comeback, Abhishek will be out.
