‘When you do not live up to the expectations…’ Abhishek Sharma’s heart broke after the flop in Zimbabwe, captain Suryakumar Yadav consoled him like this

The Indian team may have won the three-match T20 series played on the Zimbabwe tour brilliantly, but for young opener Abhishek Sharma, this tour was no less than a nightmare. Disappointed with his poor performance in the entire series, Abhishek Sharma is heartbroken, which was clearly visible in his recent social media post. While on one hand players like Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Ishan Kishan scored a lot of runs, on the other hand Abhishek Sharma could score only 11 runs in total in three matches. After this disappointing performance, while the young batsman has promised the fans to make a comeback, former captain Suryakumar Yadav has come forward and encouraged him.

Abhishek was a complete flop in the series, pain spread on social media

In the three-match T20 series played against Zimbabwe, Team India whitewashed the host team, but Abhishek Sharma’s bat remained silent. He could score only 11 runs in three innings, while his fellow opening partner young Vaibhav Suryavanshi took the crown of the highest run scorer in the series by scoring 151 runs. Whereas Ishan Kishan secured second position with 146 runs. Hurt by his poor performance, Abhishek Sharma shared an emotional post on Instagram and wrote that when you are unable to live up to the expectations that people have from you, it hurts a lot. However, he also added that this game always rewards those who keep working hard and he is happy with the team’s victory and will soon return to the field stronger.

‘You have given glory to the country…’, Suryakumar Yadav’s heart winning comment

Surya encouraged Abhishek by commenting, “You have given a lot of reasons to smile for the last two consecutive years. You have made India proud when the country needed it the most. This is just a matter of bad times, stay as you are.” This loving and inspirational message of Surya is becoming increasingly viral on social media, which is being highly appreciated in the cricket circles.
