The last India and England T20 match is scheduled at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. In this match, the storm of the aggressive opening batsman Abhishek Sharma was seen. India's cricket player has become a record-breaker for most sixes in an international T20 match batting at a speedy pace.

Abhishek scored 135 runs in this match with 12 sixes and seven fours in 54 balls. With this, Abhishek took over then-captain Rohit Sharma's record for most sixes in an innings. Earlier, Rohit played 10 sixes in 2017 in a match played with Sri Lanka. Not only that, but Abhishek's record of 135 runs, with which he played, is a record for most runs in a T20 played by any Indian player. Earlier, then-player Shubman Gill played an unbeaten 126 runs in 2023 in a match played with New Zealand.

This stormy century scored by Abhishek is the second fastest century in international T20 for India. Abhishek attacked the English bowlers from the first ball and completed his century in just 37 balls. The record for scoring the fastest century for India is held by former captain Rohit Sharma. Rohit scored a century against Sri Lanka in 2017 in just 35 balls. At the same time, Sanju Samson is in third place, who completed his century in just 40 balls against Bangladesh.
