India vs Zimbabwe T20: Team India will be expected to win the T20 series against Zimbabwe. Abhishek Sharma can play a big role in writing the brilliant script of that victory. But, amidst all this, Indian cricket fans would not want Abhishek Sharma to overtake the Pakistani player. This matter is related to the highest number of dismissals at zero during a calendar year in T20. At present, Abhishek has equaled the record held by a Pakistani player. Meaning, if Abhishek misses even once in the T20 series against Zimbabwe, then it will be a big mistake. Because, he will go ahead of the Pakistani player.
Abhishek Sharma should not be overtaken by Pakistani player!
India jointly hold the record of 9 ducks in a calendar year in T20. Abhishek Sharmaare the names of Shadab Khan of Pakistan and Rashid Khan of Afghanistan. Abhishek Sharma has been out on zero 9 times so far this year. Whereas Shadab Khan had made this record in 2024. Rashid Khan became the first cricketer to duck 9 times in T20I in 2019. It is clear that if Abhishek Sharma is out on zero once again in the T20 against Zimbabwe, he will not only leave Pakistan’s Shadab Khan behind in this matter but will also go ahead of Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan.
Breaking records and making new records is a good thing. But, there are some records which are better to avoid. The record for most dismissals on zero in T20 in a calendar year is exactly the same.
The responsibility of giving a great start is on Abhishek Sharma
After what happened in Ireland and England, victory in Zimbabwe has become important. To achieve that victory, it is necessary for Team India to get a better start. Only Abhishek Sharma does the work of giving a good start to the Indian team in T20 International. In such a situation, neither Team India nor its fans would want them to be out on zero even once during the three matches of the series.
Will Abhishek repeat history?
When Abhishek Sharma played his debut series in Zimbabwe, he scored a century in just 46 balls in one of the matches. This is a performance which Abhishek Sharma can be expected to repeat one more time.
