Abhishek Sharma Fastest to 2,000 T20I Runs, Praised by Cheteshwar Pujara
Abhishek Sharma became the fastest male cricketer to reach 2,000 T20I runs by deliveries faced during India's third T20I win against the West Indies. Former India Test player Cheteshwar Pujara praised Abhishek's maturity and compared his ability to West Indies' Chris Gayle, calling him one of India's best T20 batsmen. Abhishek's innings of 69 runs off 30 balls helped India secure a 2-1 lead in the five-match series, with a fourth match win potentially confirming the series victory.
