Abhishek Sharma and Varun Chakaravarthy secure top positions in latest ICC T20I rankings, while Hardik Pandya dominates as the leading all-rounder. New Zealand players make significant ranking strides.

Latest ICC T20I Rankings: Abhishek and Varun Shine

In the latest ICC T20I rankings, Abhishek Sharma and Varun Chakaravarthy hold top positions. Hardik Pandya is the leading all-rounder, with New Zealand players also making significant strides following their series against Pakistan.

Abhishek Sharma and Varun Chakaravarthy shine in latest ICC T20I rankings

Abhishek Sharma and Varun Chakaravarthy shine in the ICC T20I rankings. Hardik Pandya remains the top all-rounder with 252 points, while New Zealand players climb positions.

Indian swashbuckler Abhishek Sharma and mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy continued to hold on to their career-best number two position in the latest ICC T20I chart for batters and bowlers respectively.
Hardik Pandya leads the all-rounders' list with 252 points ahead of Nepal's Dipendra Singh Airee (233) and Australian Marcus Stoinis (210). Hard-hitting batter Tilak Varma and India's T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav occupied the fourth and fifth slot respectively in the rankings released on Wednesday.
Australia's Travis Head leads the chart for batters with 856 rating points with England's Phil Salt placed third with 815 points.
Abhishek has 829 points, Varma has 804 and Suryakumar 739 points.
In the bowling list headed by West Indies' Akeal Hosein (707 points), Chakaravarthy is just one point behind at 706, and ahead of England leg-spinner Adil Rashid (705), Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga (700) and Australian leggie Adam Zampa (694).
India's Ravi Bishnoi is at sixth place with 674 points, while left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh held the ninth spot with 653 points.
There has been no movement of late as far as the Indian players are concerned as the team has not played any matches since the series against England at home in January-February.
Meanwhile New Zealand's opening pair of Tim Seifert and Finn Allen, and new-ball bowler Jacob Duffy have made huge gains in the player rankings after helping their team to a 2-0 lead against Pakistan in the five-match T20I series.
Seifert and Allen got fine opening stands in both matches, the highlight being a 66-run blitz in the second match in Dunedin, in which seven of the first eight scoring shots of the innings were sixers as New Zealand chased a target of 136 with 11 balls to spare and five wickets in hand.
Sifert, who smashed 44 off 29 in the first match in Christchurch and 45 off 22 in the second, has progressed 20 slots to 13th position while Allen has moved up eight spots to 18th position with contributions of 29 not out off 17 and 38 off 16.
Duffy, who has picked six wickets in the two matches including a career-best haul of four for 14 in the first match that New Zealand won by nine wickets with almost 10 overs to spare, has advanced 23 slots to a career-best 12th position.
Other players to gain in the latest weekly rankings were New Zealand bowlers Ish Sodhi (up two places to 36th), Ben Sears (up 22 places to 67th) and Zakary Foulkes (up 41 places to 90th), and Pakistan's Haris Rauf (up four places to 26th).

Indian batter Abhishek Sharma climbs 38 spots to second in ICC T20I rankings after a stunning century against England, while Varun Chakravarthy and Steve Smith also make big gains in the latest rankings update.

Abhishek Sharma rises to second in ICC T20I rankings, Chakravarthy gains three spots

Indian batter Abhishek Sharma climbs 38 spots to second in ICC T20I rankings after a stunning century against England, while Varun Chakravarthy and Steve Smith also make big gains in the latest rankings update.

Abhishek Sharma skyrocketed 38 spots to claim the second position in the ICC Men's T20I Rankings for batters, as per the latest update on Wednesday from ICC Cricket&rsquo;s website.&nbsp;
The Indian opener delivered a career-defining performance in the fifth and final T20I against England, smashing a blistering 135 off just 54 balls in Mumbai.&nbsp;
This record-breaking knock&mdash;the highest individual T20I score by an Indian men's player&mdash;propelled him to the No. 2 ranking among batters.
Abhishek finished the series as the leading run-scorer with 279 runs at an impressive average of 55.80 and a staggering strike rate of 219.68, including a century and a fifty.&nbsp;
Despite his heroics, Australia&rsquo;s Travis Head continues to top the T20I batting rankings, though Abhishek trails by only 26 rating points.
India now boasts three batters inside the top five, with Tilak Varma securing the third position and skipper Suryakumar Yadav slipping to fifth.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya (up five places to 51st) and Shivam Dube (up 38 spots to 58th) have also made notable jumps after strong performances against England.
The rankings for T20I bowlers also saw major shifts, with India's Varun Chakravarthy climbing three places to joint-second following his Player of the Series-winning 14-wicket haul, including a five-wicket performance.&nbsp;
Teammate Ravi Bishnoi moved up four places to sixth after claiming five wickets in the series. West Indies spinner Akeal Hosein reclaimed the No.1 ranking, dethroning England&rsquo;s Adil Rashid.
In the latest Test rankings, Australian players made significant gains after their commanding innings-and-242-run victory over Sri Lanka in Galle.&nbsp;
Stand-in captain Steve Smith jumped three places to fifth after registering his 35th Test century, while opener Usman Khawaja surged six spots to 11th with a career-best 232-run knock.&nbsp;
In the bowling rankings, veteran spinner Nathan Lyon climbed two places to sixth, while pacer Mitchell Starc also moved up two spots to 12th following their dominant performances.

Abhishek Sharma smashes record-breaking 135 as India thrash England by 150 runs in T20I

Witness Abhishek Sharma's exceptional T20I innings of 135 runs at Mumbai, setting new records and leading India to a decisive victory over England by 150 runs. His dedication and team spirit underline his rise in international cricket.

Abhishek Sharma stole the show with a record-breaking 135-run T20I innings in Mumbai, leading India to a massive 150-run win against England. His performance, rooted in preparation, sets benchmarks, fostering unity with fellow young cricketers.

Young batter Abhishek Sharma&rsquo;s sensational knock leads India to a commanding victory over England, breaking multiple records in the process.
In a historic performance at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, on Sunday, February 2, Abhishek Sharma delivered one of the most dominant T20I innings by an Indian batter, scoring a blistering 135 off just 54 balls. His explosive innings helped Suryakumar Yadav-led India secure a 150-run win over England in the 5th T20I, sealing the series in emphatic fashion.
&nbsp;Abhishek Sharma Breaks Records
The 24-year-old from Amritsar, who made his T20I debut on July 6, 2024, surpassed Shubman Gill&rsquo;s record for the highest individual score by an Indian in T20Is. His knock included seven fours and 13 sixes, setting another milestone for the most sixes hit by an Indian batter in a T20I match.
Pre-Match Preparation Key to Success
Reflecting on his stunning performance, Abhishek credited his rigorous pre-match training and the support from coaches and captain Suryakumar Yadav for backing him during tough phases.
&ldquo;You can ask any player; such matches are very rare. It was all possible because of the efforts I put in during practice, the support from my captain and coaches, and my belief that when my day comes, I will play an innings like this,&rdquo; Abhishek said in the post-match press conference.
Dominating England&rsquo;s Bowling Attack
Abhishek revealed that he particularly enjoyed taking on England&rsquo;s fast bowlers and leg-spinner Adil Rashid, against whom he hammered 13 sixes.
&ldquo;I do not remember half of them now, to be honest. But using the pace of the bowlers over covers and taking on Adil Rashid felt good. I always try to recreate match scenarios in the nets so I can execute them in real matches,&rdquo; he added.
No Rivalry, Just Team Spirit
Addressing questions about competition with fellow young openers Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhishek dismissed any notions of rivalry.
&ldquo;I met Jaiswal and Shubman yesterday. We have been playing together since U-16, and there is no feeling of insecurity. Our only dream was to play for India, and all three of us doing so is the biggest achievement,&rdquo; he stated.
India&rsquo;s Dominant Victory
Abhishek&rsquo;s record-breaking century propelled India to a mammoth total, leaving England struggling to chase down 247, as they crumbled under pressure. India&rsquo;s 150-run victory is now one of the biggest margins in T20I history.
With this win, India continues to dominate the shortest format, and Abhishek Sharma has firmly announced himself as a force to be reckoned with in international cricket.

Rishi Sunak attended the final T20I match between India and England in Mumbai, where India clinched a 150-run victory, led by Abhishek Sharma's 135-run knock. Sunak congratulated Team India on the win, while also reflecting on England's tough day.

Abhishek Sharma calls 135-run knock 'special' in 5th T20I victory over England

Abhishek Sharma's explosive 135 runs off 54 balls led India to a dominant 4-1 series victory over England in the fifth T20I. His record-breaking innings, featuring 7 fours and 13 sixes, set a new benchmark for the highest T20I score by an Indian.

Indian cricketer Abhishek Sharma reflected on his sensational 135-run innings against England in the fifth T20I, describing it as "special" since it was for the country.&nbsp;
His outstanding all-round performance played a crucial role in India's historic victory over England in the series finale at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, on Sunday. With this win, India secured the five-match series 4-1, having already claimed the series earlier.
Abhishek's breathtaking 135-run knock at the iconic Wankhede Stadium earned him a place in the record books. During the match, he struck 7 fours and 13 sixes at an extraordinary strike rate of 250.00. His innings now stands as the highest T20I score by an Indian, surpassing Shubman Gill's unbeaten 126 against New Zealand.
At the post-match presentation, Abhishek Sharma shared insights into his approach, mentioning that he aimed to attack from the very first ball. When asked about his most cherished shots in the match, he particularly highlighted those against Adil Rashid.
"It's a special one, coming for the country, always a great feeling. When I see it's my day, I always try to go from the first ball. And the way the coach and the captain have treated me from the first day. They've always wanted this intent, they've always backed me. When the opponents are bowling 140, 150-plus, you have to be ready a little earlier. Just react to the ball and play my shots. When you're hitting a world-class bowler over the covers [off Archer], it's always great, but I liked the shots against Adil Rashid as well. Probably he [mentor Yuvraj Singh] should be happy today. He's always wanted me to bat into the 15th, 20th over, and I've tried to implement that," he said.
Recapping the match, England won the toss and opted to bowl first. Abhishek Sharma&rsquo;s explosive 135 off 54 balls powered India to a formidable total of 247/9. He was the standout performer with the bat for the Men in Blue.&nbsp;
On the bowling front for England, Brydon Carse led with a three-wicket haul, while Mark Wood chipped in with two wickets.
During England&rsquo;s chase, Philip Salt (55 runs from 23 balls, 7 fours, and 3 sixes) was the only batter to offer resistance. The rest of the English lineup struggled against India's dominant bowling attack. England was eventually bundled out for 97 runs in just 11 overs.
India's bowlers were instrumental in sealing the victory, with Abhishek Sharma, Shivam Dube, and Varun Chakravarthy each claiming three wickets.&nbsp;
Abhishek was named 'Player of the Match' for his extraordinary innings, while Varun Chakravarthy earned the 'Player of the Series' award for his consistent performances throughout the series.

India vs England 2nd T20I: Dominant India eyes series advantage as England seeks redemption

India leads the five-match T20I series 1-0, with the second match set in Chennai. England aims to bounce back after a disappointing performance in the first game, while India looks to capitalize on spin-friendly conditions.

After a commanding performance in the opening T20I, India and England are set to clash once again in the second T20I on January 25, 2025, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
The match is scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM IST, with England looking to bounce back after a disappointing start to the series. India currently leads 1-0 in the five-match series.
India made an emphatic statement in Kolkata, cruising to a seven-wicket victory in just 12.5 overs. Abhishek Sharma&rsquo;s blistering 79 off 34 balls was the highlight of the chase, while the bowlers, operating in unison, kept England&rsquo;s batsmen in check, limiting them to a modest total of 132.
For England, only Jos Buttler stood out with a defiant 68, but the rest of the team fell short in what was an underwhelming performance.
As the series shifts to Chennai, England will need to regroup and address the shortcomings that were exposed in the first match.
Changes to the lineup are on the cards, with the possibility of players like Rehan Ahmed, Brydon Carse, or Saqib Mahmood being brought in to strengthen the attack.
India, meanwhile, will aim to keep the momentum flowing. The management has given players like Abhishek Sharma the freedom to express themselves, a tactic that paid off handsomely in the first match.
With spinners Varun Chakravarthy and Axar Patel in excellent form, India will look to dominate once again.
The spin-friendly conditions at the MA Chidambaram Stadium are expected to play into India&rsquo;s hands, but England&rsquo;s batsmen will be determined to adapt and come up with a stronger performance.
The stage is set for a compelling contest as both teams battle for supremacy in this exciting series.
<h1>India&rsquo;s Triumph in the 1st T20I</h1>
<h3>Abhishek Sharma&rsquo;s Match-Winning Knock:</h3>
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/679337a8d7823_1737701288.jpg" width="582" height="327">
Sharma&rsquo;s aggressive 79 from just 34 balls was the standout contribution in India&rsquo;s chase. His swashbuckling style, combined with his ability to find the boundary at will, put England on the back foot from the start, ensuring a relatively easy win for the hosts.
<h3>Impressive Bowling Effort:</h3>
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/679337b51c70e_1737701301.jpg" width="581" height="326">
India&rsquo;s bowlers were on top of their game, with Arshdeep Singh setting the tone with the new ball and Varun Chakravarthy playing a key role in the middle overs.
The spinners, in particular, kept England&rsquo;s batters in check, taking crucial wickets to reduce the visitors to a paltry total.
<h3>Smart Captaincy:</h3>
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/679337c0ee00a_1737701312.jpg" width="586" height="329">
Suryakumar Yadav&rsquo;s decision to bowl first was a tactical masterstroke. India adapted well to the pitch, which helped them control proceedings from the start. SKY&rsquo;s calm and composed leadership was evident as the team executed their plans with precision.
<h3>Solid Fielding Display:</h3>
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/679337d46e61a_1737701332.jpg" width="581" height="326">
India&rsquo;s fielding was sharp and efficient, backing up their bowlers with some excellent stops and sharp throws.
England&rsquo;s batters were rarely given any easy runs, and the fielding played a key role in maintaining pressure throughout the match. 
<h1>England&rsquo;s Struggles in the 1st T20I</h1>
<h3>Batting Woes:</h3>
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/679337e316d03_1737701347.jpg" width="581" height="326">
Despite Jos Buttler&rsquo;s valiant knock of 68 off 44 balls, England&rsquo;s batting crumbled around him. Key players like Liam Livingstone and Harry Brook failed to fire, and the team was left with too little to defend.
Their total of 132 never looked like being enough on a pitch where India&rsquo;s batsmen thrived.
<h3>Bowling Inconsistencies:</h3>
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/679337ef99f28_1737701359.jpg" width="581" height="326">
England&rsquo;s bowlers were unable to apply pressure during India&rsquo;s chase. Abhishek Sharma&rsquo;s early onslaught left them scrambling, and while Jofra Archer impressed with the ball, the rest of the attack, including Adil Rashid, failed to contain the Indian batsmen. The lack of variety and control in the attack was glaring.
<h3>Fielding Errors:</h3>
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/67933800e983c_1737701376.jpg" width="577" height="324">
A few missed chances in the field only compounded England&rsquo;s woes. In a match where every small mistake is magnified, these lapses allowed India to maintain momentum and assert their dominance throughout.
Heading into the second T20I, England will be looking to iron out these issues, while India will be determined to replicate their performance and extend their lead in the series.
<h1>Will Either Team Make Changes to Their Playing XI?</h1>
India: With their dominant win in the first T20I, India is unlikely to make any changes to their lineup. The team will be keen to keep the momentum going, especially with players like Abhishek Sharma and Arshdeep Singh in fine form.
The only potential change could come in the form of Mohammad Shami&rsquo;s inclusion. While he was expected to feature in the first match, Shami&rsquo;s return was delayed for fitness assessments.
If cleared, he could replace one of the pacers in the squad, but for now, India is likely to stick with the same XI.
England: After their lackluster performance, England may look to make a few changes. The pitch at the MA Chidambaram Stadium is traditionally spin-friendly, which could see Rehan Ahmed brought in to add an extra dimension to the spin attack.
This would likely mean dropping a pacer. England will need more from their senior spinners, particularly Adil Rashid, and the inclusion of Ahmed could help shore up a bowling attack that looked a little one-dimensional in the opening game.
With both teams eager to assert themselves in the series, the second T20I promises to be an intriguing contest. England will need to quickly address their issues, while India will look to maintain their dominance and take a commanding 2-0 lead in the series.

Indian cricketer Abhishek Sharma criticized low-cost airline Indigo for a poor experience at Delhi airport, which led to a missed flight.

Abhishek Sharma slams Indigo for worst experience, ruining holiday

Indian cricketer Abhishek Sharma criticized low-cost airline Indigo for a poor experience at Delhi airport, which led to a missed flight.

Indian cricketer Abhishek Sharma recently shared his frustration with IndiGo airline after a negative experience at Delhi airport, which he claims ruined his holiday. Sharma, who has played 12 T20Is for India and will be part of the team&rsquo;s upcoming match against England, took to Instagram to explain the situation. He did not mention his travel destination, but described how the airline&rsquo;s poor service led to him missing his flight.
Sharma explained that despite arriving on time at the correct counter, he was redirected to another counter by staff, where he was later informed that check-in had closed. This caused him to miss his flight, leading to a ruined one-day holiday. Sharma expressed his frustration with the airline and its staff, particularly with counter manager Ms. Sushmita Mittal.&nbsp;
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/6784f18b6b8d8_1736765835.jpeg" width="427" height="745"> In his Instagram story, he said, "I had the worst experience with Indigo at Delhi airport, and the behaviour of staff, especially counter manager Ms. Sushmita Mittal, was absolutely unacceptable. I arrived on time at the correct counter, but they redirected me unnecessarily to another counter, only to tell me later that check-in was closed, making me miss my flight. I only had a one-day holiday, which has now been completely ruined. To make it even worse, they are offering no further helpful assistance. This is by far the worst airline experience, and worst staff management I've ever had."
The incident comes amid poor ratings for IndiGo in the &lsquo;AirHelp Score report 2024,&rsquo; which ranked the airline 103rd out of 109 carriers. The report also ranked Air India 61st and AirAsia 94th.
In response to the criticism, IndiGo rejected the findings of the report. The airline defended its service by highlighting its high ranking in punctuality and low customer complaint ratio, as reported by India&rsquo;s aviation regulator, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). IndiGo also criticized the methodology of the AirHelp survey, pointing out that it did not disclose sample sizes from India or adhere to global compensation standards, casting doubt on the report&rsquo;s reliability.

Markram, who is the captain of the South African team, described the duo of Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head as the "brothers of destruction"

Abhishek Sharma's performance in IPL 2024 for SRH will help him play for India: Aiden Markaram

Sunrisers Hyderabad's South African import Aiden Markram believes that Abhishek Sharma's destructive IPL form would fetch him an India cap in the not so distant future.

<h2>Markram, who is the captain of the South African team, described the duo of Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head as the "brothers of destruction"</h2>

Sunrisers Hyderabad's South African import Aiden Markram believes that Abhishek Sharma's destructive IPL form would fetch him an India cap in the not so distant future.
Abhishek, who is striking at over 200 in the ongoing edition, has 401 runs in 12 matches. He and Australian Travis Head make for an explosive opening pair and most recently chased down over 160 runs in a less 10 overs against Lucknow Super Giants.
Markram, who is the captain of the South African team, described the duo as "brothers of destruction" in an interview to PTI.
"Abhi (Abhishek) has made massive strides this season. He was showing some really positive signs in the previous seasons and what he's achieved so far this season puts him in good stead for hopefully representing India one day," Markram said of the 23-year-old left-hander.
"He's got a very calm and level head on his shoulders and he'll take everything in his stride. But my fingers are certainly crossed for him to go to higher honours," he added.
Joining the debate surrounding the impact player rule, Markram said that the addition of an extra batter in the line-up has allowed teams to adopt a more aggressive approach.
"Naturally, when you have that extra batter in your batting line-up, you feel more freedom as a player. And obviously from the start of the innings, the openers feel that extra bit of freedom as well," he explained.
"I think we've seen it with quite a few other teams that have been doing it. So I'll definitely say that the impact players have created that and created probably a new brand of T20 cricket that happens here in IPL," he said.
Markram also commended the team's bowling unit, particularly the leadership of Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
"I don't think he's (Bhuvneshwar Kumar) ever lost it, to be honest. He sort of leads from the front in his own calm and silent way. It's been fantastic for us to watch.
"But the bowling unit as a whole has really confronted this challenge of the batters that's been happening this season with the scene of impact player. They found their own unique ways to try to keep the batters calm and also try to find ways to keep taking wickets," he said.
"But definitely someone like Bhuvi leading from the front, as he's done for many, many years, has been excellent for you," he added.
Markram hasn't had the best of seasons so far and has managed 199 runs from nine matches so far. The 30-year-old said he is happy with the effort he is putting into his game.
"I'm still feeling really good. IPL is a tough beast to crack and you as a player have to appreciate that. It's all for good reasons. For me, it's spending lots of time working on my game, working hard off the field as well.
"And if you get another opportunity, you'll feel ready to take that and grab that opportunity hopefully. And if it doesn't work out, then whatever cricket lies ahead, you trust that this preparation puts you in a good state for that," he said acknowledging being out of form.

<h2>Abhishek's explosive batting, which includes hitting the highest number of sixes this season at 35, partnered with Travis Head in the fastest chase of a 150-plus target in T20 cricket on Wednesday.</h2>

Abhishek Sharma, the dynamic opener for Sunrisers Hyderabad, has attributed much of his impressive performance in the ongoing IPL season to the unyielding support from team captain Pat Cummins and the entire management team. The 23-year-old Punjab left-hander has been in spectacular form, amassing 401 runs in just 12 matches at a phenomenal strike rate of 205.
Speaking after his team's remarkable 10-wicket victory over the Lucknow Super Giants, Abhishek shared insights on JioCinema Match Centre Live about the unique approach promoted within the team. "Our support staff and Pat (Cummins), the way they think, I have never seen anyone else think like that," he expressed. He further added the motivational ethos encouraged by the team, "They're like, 'Go out there and express yourself. Play as aggressively as you can, we'll back you.' I think that matters a lot."
Abhishek's explosive batting, which includes hitting the highest number of sixes this season at 35, partnered with Travis Head in the fastest chase of a 150-plus target in T20 cricket. Together, they achieved the target of 166 in just 9.4 overs, with Abhishek scoring an unbeaten 75 from 28 balls and Head an unbeaten 89 from 30 balls. This performance not only secured the win but also set a record for the highest total by any team by the end of the tenth over in men's T20s with a score of 167.
Reflecting on his batting philosophy, Abhishek discussed the origins of his aggressive playing style. "I think this approach was something I took on during the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy," he mentioned, referring to his significant contribution to Punjab's victory in the domestic T20 championship last season. Abhishek was the second-highest run-scorer in last season's SMAT, accumulating 485 runs in 10 matches.
Abhishek also praised his teammate Travis Head, especially for his exceptional skill against spin bowling. "I don't think anyone plays spin better than Travis. The shots he hit off (Krishnappa) Gowtham, normally batters can't do that, that shows how special he is," he remarked. He highlighted their growing partnership, both on and off the field, "He's very clear, whenever I talk to him, the way he compliments me, I have always been a big fan of him over the last year that I have followed him."
On their strategy against the Lucknow Super Giants, particularly against pace bowlers using cutters, Abhishek explained, "They were bowling cutters in the middle. I thought the cutters could slow down on their way, but Travis and I had planned to play it the way you would hit a spinner with the spin."

'Don't think he is ready': Yuvraj Singh on Abhishek Sharma's selection chances for T20 World Cup28

<h2>Yuvraj Singh feels that Abhishek Sharma is still 6 months away from being ready for an India call-up, stating he needs to learn from Travis Head on how to convert your starts into big scores.</h2>

23-year-old Abhishek Sharma is having a dream IPL 2024 at the moment. Playing as an opening batsman for Sunrisers Hyderabad, the cricketer from Punjab has amassed 288 runs in 8 innings at an outstanding strike rate of 218.18. Abhishek Sharma is also in contention for winning the prestigious 'Emerging Player of the Season' award. After a brilliant start to his campaign, there's been a growing clamour for his inclusion in India's T20 World Cup squad.
However, former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh feels that Abhishek Sharma is not yet ready to be included in India's T20 World Cup squad which is due to take place in June in the West Indies and the USA. Yuvraj Singh has worked closely with Abhishek Sharma over the past few years and the SRH batter has also acknowledged Yuvraj as his mentor.
Yuvraj Singh feels that the young left-hander from Punjab needs more time before he can be considered ready to represent India internationally.
During a recent interaction with Cricbuzz, Yuvraj said, &nbsp;"Abhishek is almost there but I don't think he is ready for the World Cup right now."
"For the World Cup, we have to take an experienced side. Obviously, some guys have played for India. After the World Cup, he should be prepared to play for India. That is what he should focus on. Coming six months will be very important for Abhishek," Yuvraj added.
Yuvraj Singh also said that although Abhishek boasts an outstanding strike rate of 218.18 during the ongoing season of IPL, he still has to spend time at the crease and play a big knock.&nbsp;
"His performance definitely is better. His strike rate has been phenomenal but big scores haven't come. With this kind of strike rate, you must get big scores if you want to compete for a spot to play for India. Great strike rates, yes, but there have to be a couple of big knocks to make sure that you are worthwhile to play for India."
Together with Travis Head, Abhishek has developed a lethal combination. Unlike his youthful opening partner, Travis Head has turned his few starts into big scores. Australia's left-hander, Head, has two fifties and a century, and Yuvraj wants Abhishek to pick up this hitting technique from the Aussie star.
"He is definitely getting a lot of confidence from Travis Head. Travis is a world-class player right now. He got a hundred in the World Cup final, he is a big match player. Abhishek has the opportunity to learn how to convert a good start into a big knock. That is what he has to learn from him."

IPL 2024: SRH vs MI - Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma and Klaasen shine as Sunrisers Hyderabad shatter highest IPL total record

The Sunrisers Hyderabad put up a batting masterclass on Wednesday as SRH smashed 277/3 against MI and are the new record holders for the highest-ever team total in IPL history. Here are all the records they tumbled

The Sunrisers Hyderabad lit up the IPL with a power-packed batting display against the Mumbai Indians and shattered multiple records on Wednesday.

The weather forecast in Hyderabad didn't show any thunderstorms but it still rained sixes at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Wednesday.
The Sunrisers Hyderabad lit up the IPL with a power-packed batting display against the Mumbai Indians.
Playing his first game for SRH, Travis Head made MI bowlers look like headless chickens with a 16-ball half-century. He was dismissed for 64 but that didn't end Mumbai's misery.
Abhishek Sharma took over from there on and he too smashed fifty of 16 balls. Interestingly, those were the fastest half-centuries for SRH in the history of the IPL.
Hyderabad raced to 148/2 in 10 overs, which was the most runs scored in the first 60 balls in the 17-year history of the cash-rich league.
SRH then brought up their 200 in 14.4 overs, which is now the second-fastest 200 in IPL history. The record is held by RCB, who did it in 14.1 overs.
It was the Heinrich Klaasen show post that, as he tamed Mumbai with an unbeaten 80 off just 34 balls.
He stitched an unbeaten 116-run partnership with Aiden Markram as the Sunrisers shattered the highest-ever team total in IPL history and finished with 277/3. The previous best was 263/5 by RCB back in 2013.
Kwena Maphaka finished with 66 runs in 4 overs, which is now the most expensive figures by a bowler on IPL debut.
