Abhishek Sharma made his debut in Team India with a explosive century on the Zimbabwe tour. But after this his bat became silent. He had failed in several consecutive innings. For this reason, questions started being raised on him. However, he has regained his rhythm in the last 3 innings. In the last two matches against South Africa, he played innings of 50 runs in 25 balls and 36 runs in 18 balls. Now he has answered all the critics by scoring 79 runs in 34 balls. After this innings, Aakash Chopra and Suresh Raina were also seen praising him.
