Abhishek Sharma was cleaned up for a low score as the tall pacer Marco Jansen pulled off a stunning catch during the first T20I at the Barabati Stadium in Cuttack
His back-to-back exceptional performances quickly helped him rise in the ICC Rankings, and he has also become the batter with the highest rating points in T20I history.
Abhishek was unable to hit boundaries from the start and was then dismissed by Lutho Sipamla in the 7th over of the innings.
Abhishek hit it towards fine leg, where Marco Jansen came in running and put in a dive to pull off a stunning catch and send the Indian batter packing for 17 runs off 12 balls.

He is batting really well anyway - Irfan Pathan hails Abhishek Sharma
Speaking in a video shared on his official YouTube channel ahead of the match, the former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan lavished rich praise on Abhishek for his T20I heroics.
"The flow with which he is batting, the strike rate with which he is batting like at 190-200, and averages close to 40, you won't find any other batter who is this consistent while playing in this style. South Africa might look to bowl outside off stump, or they might even go for the short ball in the first or the second ball of the innings itself. We have to see how Abhishek Sharma counters this." Irfan Pathan said on his YouTube channel.
