The Asia Cup 2025 saw India’s Abhishek Sharma join an elite list, showcasing a phenomenal display of batting against arch-rivals Pakistan. Sharma’s aggressive approach was evident from the start, as he launched a powerful six early in the innings. His quickfire 74 runs, including a fifty off just 24 balls, made him the fastest Indian to reach this milestone against Pakistan in T20Is. This performance marked a significant moment, as no Indian batsman had achieved this feat in 13 years prior to Sharma, with Virat Kohli being the last. Pakistan, batting first, scored 171/5, but India, with strong performances from Sharma, Shubman Gill, and Tilak Verma, comfortably chased down the target in 18.5 overs, solidifying their dominance in the Super-4 stage and securing a 6-wicket win.
