Chennai, February 26: Indian opener Abhishek Sharma, who has been struggling to find his form in the ICC T20 World Cup 2026, has made a strong comeback with his half-century against Zimbabwe at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Thursday. Abhishek Sharma had been dismissed for a duck in three back-to-back matches in the tournament earlier.
However, the explosive opener made a statement in the match against Zimbabwe and silenced all his critics with a blistering 50 off just 26 balls in the must-win game against Zimbabwe.
Failure Is The Best Teacher
Abhishek Sharma has been struggling in the previous matches of the tournament with three zeros in three innings and only 15 runs in his fourth game. However, he is playing an excellent knock today, as he was under the radar of the Indian fans for the past few days.
The fans were criticising him and there were also demands to drop him from the side as the remaining matches are going to be crucial for Team India in the last stages of the World Cup.
However, Abhishek played the much needed innings for India and himself as well. He managed to find his form at the right time as whenever he gets going the Indian team and fans remain tension free for the result of the match.
Abhishek Sharma scored his half-century against Zimbabwe off just 26 balls with three fours and four sixes at a strike-rate of over 180. India is going strong against Zimbabwe and are cruising towards a massive target in their first innings.
