As the 2025 Asia Cup reaches its climax, one name has emerged as the driving force behind India's batting prowess: Abhishek Sharma. The dashing Punjab opener has taken the tournament by storm, cementing his status as a rising star in the Indian cricket team.
Abhishek's journey to the Asia Cup final has been nothing short of remarkable. Earlier this year, he cracked India's highest-ever T20I individual score against England, and he has only built on that success in the ongoing tournament. With consistency and big-hitting skills as his standout features, Abhishek has broken the record for most runs in an Asia Cup edition, surpassing the previous mark set by Pakistan's Mohammad Rizwan in 2022.
Now, Abhishek stands on the cusp of etching his name in the history books even further. He is closing in on the world record for most consecutive 30-plus scores in T20Is, currently held jointly by former India captain Rohit Sharma and Pakistan's Rizwan. Additionally, Abhishek is within touching distance of another Indian batting legend's record – Virat Kohli's tally of most runs for the country in a multi-nation T20I tournament.
As the high-stakes final against Pakistan in Dubai approaches, all eyes will be on Abhishek Sharma as he looks to cement his place among the greats of the game and lead India to glory in the 2025 Asia Cup.
