Abhishek Sharma Struggles with Consistency in T20Is Against South Africa

Indian cricketer Abhishek Sharma continues to face challenges in the T20I format, particularly evident in his recent outing against South Africa. In the latest match, Sharma was dismissed for just seven runs, adding to his string of poor performances in T20 Internationals.

Former Indian cricketer Robin Uthappa has weighed in on Sharma’s form, drawing parallels with the inconsistent yet explosive career of Virender Sehwag. Uthappa suggested that, like Sehwag, one cannot expect too much consistency from Sharma, highlighting the inherent unpredictability in his batting style.

Sharma, who is 24 years old and hails from Amritsar, Punjab, has been part of several Indian cricket teams, including the national side, India A, and various domestic and IPL teams such as the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Despite his promising start and occasional flashes of brilliance, his T20I career has been marked by inconsistency.

The left-handed batsman and slow left-arm orthodox bowler has played seven T20Is for India, with his highest score being just 34. His overall statistics in the T20I format reflect his struggles to establish a stable presence in the team.
