Abhishek Sharma Creates History, Breaks Virat Kohli’s T20 Century Record After 35-Ball Hundred

Abhishek Sharma achieved a remarkable feat by scoring a century in just 35 balls against New Zealand in the third T20I, breaking the previous record held by Virat Kohli. The India opener scored 113 runs off just 38 balls, becoming India's third T20I century player. This achievement marks Sharma's 11th T20I century, surpassing Kohli's previous record of 10 T20 centuries.

Sharma currently trails Chris Gayle and Babar Azam in the all-time T20I century list. His performance in the Wellington match saw him become one of the finest batsmen in the format and move ahead of his former captain on the list of Indian batters with the most T20 centuries.
