India National Cricket Team captain Shreyas Iyer won the toss and opted to bat first in the historic one-off T20I match against the Japan National Cricket Team on Tuesday, September 22, at the Sano International Cricket Ground, Sano. However, Abhishek Sharma failed to make an impact in Sano.
Abhishek failed to carry forward his red-hot form despite coming into the historic one-off T20I game following a record-breaking century against Afghanistan in the third and final T20I last week in Delhi.
The India National Cricket Team suffered an early blow against the Japan National Cricket Team as opener Abhishek Sharma was dismissed for a golden duck in the ongoing one-off T20I match at the Sano International Cricket Ground on Tuesday (September 22).
Charlie Hara-Hinze provided Japan with a dream start by removing the dangerous left-hander in the first over itself. Hara-Hinze bowled a delivery on the leg stump, which Abhishek tried to work towards the fine-leg region. The Indian batter got a top edge, sending the ball high into the air.
Shoma Sugaya-Slater displayed great game awareness and ran back from the short field to complete a sensational catch, with Abhishek walking back after facing only one delivery. Interestingly, Charlie Hara-Hinze was the bowler who had dismissed Vaibhav Sooryavanshi in 2024.
Embarrassing record for Abhishek Sharma
With this embarrassing outing, Abhishek has made an unwanted record in T20I cricket. He has now become the Indian opener with the most golden ducks in the shorter format of the game.
