T20 WC: There Is Clarity In Abhishek’s Game Plan, Decision-making Is Not Clouded: Mhambrey
U19 Cricket World Cup: Former India bowling coach Paras Mhambrey has praised in-form left-handed opener Abhishek Sharma’s clarity in game plan and decision-making ahead of the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup, adding that it was a matter of time for him to enter the senior set-up and develop into a quality player.
Abhishek enters the upcoming mega event as the top-ranked T20I batter, having amassed 1,297 runs in 37 T20Is, including ten fifty-plus scores since his debut in July 2024 – the most for a batter in this time-frame ahead of the World Cup. He also leads the six-hitting charts with 88 maximums in that period, the most amongst top ten teams, while his strike rate of 195 is the best among batters with 1,000-plus runs.
Abhishek’s power-hitting is unmatched – as per Cricket-21, he strikes a six in every eight balls in T20Is. He has also hit 55 maximums in the first six overs – the second-most for an India men’s batter. Remarkably, he has cleared the ropes 36 times within his first 10 deliveries, which translates to averaging a six in every nine balls.
