Abhishek Sharma Scripts History, Goes Past Suryakumar Yadav To Achieve Epic T20I Feat
\n\nAbhishek Shamra broke Suryakumar Yadav's record of most sixes in a calendar year. Abhishek and Suryakumar Yadav were tied at 68 sixes, and Sharma leapfrogged the former India captain after smashing Shamar Springer for a six in the ninth over, taking his tally to 69 sixes. Sharma has been a six-hitting machine ever since he made his debut in international cricket. In T20Is, he has already hit 102 sixes in just 68 innings.
\n\nSanju Samson scored 56 and took India to 60 in four overs, but once the team lost Abhishek Sharma, the wickets kept on tumbling at regular intervals. Eventually, India fell a few runs short of the target. For West Indies, the star was once Shai Hope, who scored yet another century on the tour to help his team square off the series.
