Abhishek Sharma, who has made his debut for the Indian cricket team, seems to have regained his lost form. Even though his bat did not play much during the recently played series against South Africa, but now he is batting explosively in his style again. Abhishek Sharma has scored a explosive century. With this, the record of Indian team’s star player Rishabh Pant has been broken for the second time in a span of a few days. However, the fortunate thing is that Urvil Patel narrowly escaped. Had there been one less ball, Urvil would have been left behind.
Abhishek Sharma, playing for Punjab, scored a century on 28 balls against Meghalaya.
Abhishek Sharma is currently playing for his team Punjab in the Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament. While playing against Meghalaya, Abhishek Sharma has scored a century on only 28 balls. Just a few days ago, while playing for Gujarat, Urvil Patel had broken Rishabh Pant’s record by scoring a century in 28 balls. Rishabh Pant had set the record of scoring a century 32 times, now this record has been broken twice in a span of a few days. Abhishek Sharma and Urvil Patel have come on par. Both of them have scored centuries on 28 balls in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
Abhishek batted with excellent strike rate
Meanwhile, if we look at the strike rate, then Abhishek Sharma has definitely become the batsman to score the fastest century in this respect. When he completed his century, his strike rate was 365.52. When Sahil Chauhan, who scored the fastest T20 century, scored a century against Cyprus this year, his strike rate was 351.21. When Urvil Patel scored a explosive century against Tripura, his strike rate was 322.85. That is, if seen in terms of strike rate, he is the fastest batsman to score a century, but such records are not counted much. The balls are seen to see how many balls the batsman had faced when he completed his century.
Punjab won the match in the tenth over itself
Abhishek Sharma faced a total of 29 balls during the match and scored 106 runs. During this innings, he has hit 11 sixes and 8 fours. At the end of the match, his strike rate was more than 365. Batting first, Meghalaya team scored 142 runs at the loss of seven wickets in 20 overs. Due to Abhishek Sharma’s stormy century, Punjab chased this score in only 9.3 overs. Apart from Abhishek, no other batsman could score even a half-century. There was no need for this.
