Abhishek Sharma records: Full list of milestones after 35-ball hundred

India National Cricket Team opening batter Abhishek Sharma has produced yet another stunning batting performance in the ongoing five-match T20I series against New Zealand.

The left-handed batter played a match-winning knock of 113 runs off 38 balls, hitting 9 fours and 11 sixes against the Black Caps. Earlier, India created a world record: Abhishek Sharma, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi slam fastest 100, biggest powerplay score.

Abhishek Sharma creates history with 35-ball century

Abhishek Sharma once again showed why he is one of the most dangerous players in T20 cricket, taking the New Zealand bowlers to the cleaners with his fearless strokeplay as India won the third T20I match by six wickets at Wellington’s Hnry Stadium on Tuesday.

The Indian opener first smashed his fifty off 15 balls and then struck a 35-ball hundred against New Zealand as India successfully chased down 199 runs in the third T20I in Wellington. He attacked from the start and put the New Zealand bowling attack under pressure with his aggressive approach.

It was Abhishek’s fourth T20I century in just 35 balls, which was the joint-second fastest century for India in the shorter format of the game. He equalled Rohit Sharma’s famous 35-ball hundred against Sri Lanka in 2017. Only Abhishek’s own 30-ball century against Afghanistan is fastest century among Indian batters in men’s T20I cricket.
