‘Slogger King finally exposed?’: Fans expose predictable Abhishek Sharma after throwing wicket in IPL 2026 opener

Fans trolled Abhishek Sharma after the SRH batter fell early in the IPL 2026 opener on Sunday, March 28. Debutant Jacob Duffy gave RCB a sensational start as he removed the World No. 1 T20 batter on just 7 runs off 8 balls at M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

After smashing Duffy for a six in the opening over, Abhishek looked like he was struggling against short deliveries. The Kiwi pacer spotted Abhishek’s struggles and delivered a short delivery outside off, which the SRH opener tried to pull up. But a thick edge led to an easy catch for Jitesh Sharma behind.

It was Abhishek’s sixth single-digit score in his last 10 T20 innings. He scored a quickfire fifty in the T20 World Cup 2026 final to overshadow his poor run of form. But the way he was dismissed in the IPL 2026 opener refreshed fans’ memories.

One fan online called Abhishek Sharma a ‘slogger king’. The way Abhishek Sharma has thrown away his wicket while going for a big shot is becoming quite predictable.
