Abhishek Sharma's poor run in the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 continued with yet another poor batting performance. India persisted with the left-hander who looked in good touch with a couple of boundaries off Will Jacks. However, Abhishek chased one too many, holding out in the deep at the Wankhede Stadium.
India were put into bat with England captain Harry Brook winning the toss and opting to field first. On a belter of a pitch, India were expecting their openers to deliver a fast start in the powerplay.
Sanju Samson got going early, while Abhishek Sharma also seemed comfortably set with two boundaries off Will Jacks. However, Sharma chased a boundary too many and tried to clear the fence, only to find the fielder in the deep.
