Abhishek Sharma Nears Fastest 100 Sixes Record in T20 Internationals Against Ireland
Indian opener Abhishek Sharma is two sixes away from becoming the fastest male player to hit 100 sixes in T20 Internationals during the second T20I against Ireland in Belfast. Having reached 98 sixes in 775 balls, he aims to surpass Austria's Karanbir Singh's record of 813 balls. Achieving this milestone would also place him among five Indian players with 100 or more T20I sixes, joining legends like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.
