Abhishek Sharma surely put up one of the all-time best T20 international knocks. He sent the English bowlers to a leather hunt with a flabbergasting 135 off just 54 balls. He got his hundred in a mere 37 deliveries, becoming the second-fastest Indian after Rohit Sharma (35 balls). The Punjab-born lad was literally unplayable in the fifth T20I against England and the Wankhede Stadium witnessed a historic innings. With his amazing knock, Abhishek broke the back of England bowlers and records left, right, and centre. All the spectators, including some world-renowned names, witnessed something that was beyond anyone’s imagination. Catch some of his records that Abhishek broke with his blisterkrieg on Sunday.
