Kevin Pietersen has made a bold claim on the 25-year-old India National Cricket Team star, saying that he is the most complete opening batsman in T20 cricket.
His exceptional batting performances helped him become the first-choice opener for the India National Cricket Team in T20I cricket, and currently, he is the No. 1-ranked player in the ICC Men's T20I Batting Rankings.
Kevin Pietersen seems to have been highly impressed by Abhishek, and by resharing a post on X, he labelled the youngster as fearless, courageous, and talented.
Not surprised at all by this. Abhishek is the most complete opening batter in T20 cricket. Fearless, courageous and talented! t.co/Ny7we4uYoF

I saw the maturity in how to play the field - Parthiv Patel
Recently, Parthiv Patel also lauded Abhishek Sharma during an interaction on Star Sports. He said that the left-handed batsman showed a lot of maturity in the Australia series, and he wasn't blindly slogging.
"However, here, if the boundary is 75 or 80 meters, it doesn't get cleared that easily. Then you have to hit shots in the pockets. You have to hit shots where the fielders aren't there. You saw that in Abhishek Sharma's innings in Melbourne and today as well. He was making room and hitting in the areas where the fielders weren't there," he added.
The day he plays 12-13 overs, India will mostly win - Parthiv Patel
Parthiv Patel added that Abhishek Sharma would continue to play ultra-aggressive cricket and India will win all the matches where he stays in the middle for 12-13 overs.
"The day he plays 12-13 overs, India will mostly win that match because he bats with a strike rate like that. The one good thing is that he has scored more than 1,000 runs, and with this style only. So you see consistency along with high-risk, high-reward cricket in Abhishek's batting," Parthiv added.
