Abhishek Sharma achieved the milestone following his heroics in the ongoing Super Four match of the Asia Cup 2025 against the Bangladesh National Cricket Team.
However, he quickly turned it around and started playing his natural attacking brand of cricket. Abhishek made life hell for the Bangladesh bowlers and looked unstoppable in the middle.
The left-handed batsman got run out in the 12th over after a horrible mix-up with his skipper, Suryakumar Yadav, as Rishad Hossain produced epic fielding. Abhishek walked back to the hut after scoring 75 runs off 37 balls, with 6 fours and 5 sixes.
Meanwhile, Abhishek broke one major record of his mentor, Yuvraj Singh, as well. The left-handed opener's fifty against Bangladesh was his 5th half-century in 25 or fewer balls in T20Is. With this, he surpassed Yuvraj Singh's tally of 4 fifties in 25 or fewer balls.
6 Rohit Sharma (159 matches)
4 Yuvraj Singh (58 matches)

Actually, in the practice session, he got injured - Jaker Ali
Speaking earlier at the toss, the Bangladesh stand-in skipper Jaker Ali said that they are unfortunate to miss the captain Litton Das in the match as he got injured. He said:
"Yes, I am excited to lead the team. We are playing against the best team in the world. The surface looks very good to bat on."
"We are playing some good cricket. We will look to assess the conditions and play accordingly. They are a top quality side so we need to be at our best. We have made 4 changes. Litton Das is not playing. Shoriful, Taskin & Mahedi are not playing."
