Abhishek Sharma has joined the International India team

Abhishek Sharma, who had a standout performance in the IPL 2024 season, has been selected for his first international appearance in the upcoming Zimbabwe T20I series. His aggressive batting style played a key role in SRH's journey to the final, where he scored an impressive 484 runs at a striking rate of 204.22. Despite narrowly missing out on a spot in the T20 World Cup squad, Sharma now has the chance to showcase his skills on the global stage.

Sharma was thrilled to receive the news of his selection from Shubman Gill, the captain for the Zimbabwe tour. He expressed his excitement and gratitude, revealing that his family had already started celebrating even before he arrived home. Representing India has always been Sharma's ultimate goal, and he views this call-up as the beginning of his journey.

With senior players such as Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Ravindra Jadeja stepping away from T20Is, the responsibility is now shifting to the younger generation. The series against Zimbabwe is set to kick off on July 6 at the Harare Sports Club, with all five matches scheduled to take place at the same venue and conclude on July 14.
