Returning to action for the first time after almost two months, Indian young batsman Abhishek Sharma made a quick start in the first match against Bangladesh. However, his innings could not last long, where he had to be run out due to a misunderstanding with fellow opener Sanju Samson. He scored 16 runs off seven balls, which included two fours and a six. After this innings of his, now his mentor Yuvraj Singh has given him advice.
Actually, after Team India won, Abhishek shared a photo. On this, one of his fans said that a big innings is coming soon. On this, Yuvraj took a dig and said, ‘Only if we put our mind in the right way.’ Abhishek made a blast in international cricket this year by scoring 100 runs in 47 balls in the T20 series against Zimbabwe after a brilliant session of IPL 2024. He gave the credit of his century to Yuvraj.
He then told about the conversation with Yuvraj. He had said, ‘I talked to him and he said I don’t know why but he was very happy when I got out on zero. He said it was a good start. I think he should be very proud of me like my family. I am playing at this level because of him. He has worked very hard on me. For the last two-three years, he has worked very hard not only on my cricket but also off the field.’

24-year-old Abhishek has played six T20 International matches so far. He has scored 140 runs here at a strike rate of 179.49 and an average of 28.
