Abhishek Sharma continues to shine at the international stage, and with his outing against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup Super 4, has broken a record no other batsman has.
India’s star opener has become the very first player to score 300 runs (or more) in a single edition of the T20 Asia Cup. As of this writing, he stands at 309 runs in the tournament, with one match still left. For those wondering, that match is against Pakistan in the final of the competition.
He has also established himself as the batsman to hit most sixes in the T20 version of the Asia Cup, surpassing his compatriot Rohit Sharma.
