Abhishek Sharma is back to his sizzling best, having smashed four 50+ scores – including a century – in his last 10 T20Is for India. Abhishek hammered 69 off just 30 balls, as India ultimately won by 14 runs. Veteran India spinner Yuzvendra Chahal , who has faced off against Abhishek multiple times in domestic and franchise cricket, explained what makes the 26-year-old so good.

The left-hander was the pioneer behind India’s latest win, against West Indies in the third T20I in Indore on Sunday.

Abhishek Sharma smashed 69 off 30 balls in India’s third T20I win over West Indies. It was his fourth score of more than 50 in the last 10 matches.

In India’s recent T20I series against Afghanistan, Abhishek slammed knocks of 82 and 108, with the latter being the fastest ton by a player of a full-member nation. He then made a swashbuckling 61 in the Asian Games 2026 final against Pakistan.

You don’t have to go to the other batters,” Chahal said, speaking on Star Sports. “When he fires, he finishes the match. “The best thing about him is that he is playing the same way as he started in his first match. He hasn’t changed anything in his game, and that’s a big reason why he is successful,” the leg-spinner added. Then, in the ongoing T20I series against West Indies, Abhishek has smashed another fiery knock.
