After his 38-ball 113, Abhishek Sharma plays down Yuvraj’s 12-ball fifty challenge

Following a rapid century by Abhishek Sharma during the third Twenty20 international against New Zealand, the opener dismissed a suggestion by Yuvraj Singh regarding a twelve-ball fifty. India secured a victory by four wickets in the fixture, which featured contributions from Vaibhav Sooryavanshi in the opening over.

Abhishek noted that achieving such a milestone is exceptionally rare rather than straightforward. He attributed his success to preparation involving sidearm deliveries from the coaching staff and a productive practice session prior to the match.
