ZIM vs IND: Abhishek Sharma To Make India Debut Against Zimbabwe In First T20I, Confirms Shubman Gill
Abhishek Sharma got a maiden India call-up for the tour of Zimbabwe following his impressive show with the bat for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2024.
Harare: India captain Shubman Gill has tested that he'll be opening the batting with Abhishek Sharma against Zimbabwe in the substantial T20I of the 5-match collection on Saturday. With the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja asserting their T20I retirements and the unavailability of the such a lot of senior gamers, the BCCI named a young-searching out crew with Shubman Gill as the captain.
Yashasvi Jaiswal, who became factor of India’s T20 World Cup-triumphing Indian crew, is yet to arrive in Zimbabwe, this is the reason paving the variety for Sharma to make his India debut. That pushes Ruturaj Gaikwad to bat at No.three with yet one such a lot of seemingly debutant Riyan Parag at No.four.
“Yes, me and Abhishek Sharma will open the batting with Ruturaj Gaikwad coming at one down,” Gill tested on Friday on the pre-match press convention.
