Abhishek Sharma recently made his debut for Team India by taking the knowledge of cricket from the former legendary all-rounder of the Indian cricket team, Yuvraj Singh and till now he has played a total of 12 international matches for Team India. He has started his international career in a great way. But now his cricket career is on the verge of ending.
At one time it seemed that he could become Rohit Sharma’s replacement. But now it seems difficult for him to make a place in the team. So let’s know what is the whole matter and why everyone is targeting Abhishek Sharma.
Abhishek Sharma came under target
Let us tell you that Abhishek Sharma made his T20 International debut against Zimbabwe this year. Since then, he has played 12 international matches and during this time only 256 runs have come from his bat. Meanwhile, his average has been 23.27. He scored a brilliant century in the second innings of his T20 International career.
But since then he has been continuously failing. In 12 matches, he has been able to score more than 50 and 100 runs only once and this is the reason why discussions have started about his ouster from the team.
May be out of the team
In the 4 T20 match series between India and South Africa, Abhishek Sharma has scored 7, 4, 50 and 36 runs respectively in 4 innings. His performance has been very disappointing and that is why the news is coming that he may hardly be seen playing for Team India in the England T20 series to be held in January 2025. However, if he does well in domestic cricket, then the management may consider him.
England cricket team has to play a series of three ODIs and five T20 matches on the tour of India in early 2025. The T20 series between India and England is going to start from January 22. The first T20 match between India and England will be played at Eden Gardens on January 22. In such a situation, it remains to be seen whether Abhishek Sharma can be seen playing in this series.
