Asia Cup: Abhishek Sharma Stars With 75 Again As India Post 168/6

By IANS News September 24, 2025 • 22:28 PM View: 941

Asia Cup Super Fours: Abhishek Sharma produced a blazing innings to light up India’s batting effort against Bangladesh, smashing 75 off just 37 balls to help the team post 168/6 in 20 overs in the Asia Cup Super Fours clash at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium here on Wednesday.

The left-hander’s onslaught not only gave India a flying start but also took him past his mentor Yuvraj Singh’s tally for the most T20I innings by an Indian with five or more sixes.

Abhishek now has six such knocks, behind only Rohit Sharma (13) and Suryakumar Yadav (9). He also set a new Asia Cup record, hitting 17 sixes in the 2025 edition, the most ever in a single tournament across formats.
