On Sunday, September 21, Abhishek Sharma’s sister, Komal Sharma, shared a photo on social media showing her on a video call with her brother and India’s T20I vice-captain, Shubman Gill. The pair are set to play later that day as India face arch-rivals Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 match in Dubai. Komal posted the moment on her Instagram stories with the caption:
“Chats with my Kiddos >> best part of my day.”
Meanwhile, India finished at the top of Group A, winning all three of their matches against the UAE, Pakistan, and Oman. While Abhishek Sharma has provided brisk starts for the Men in Blue, Shubman Gill has struggled to deliver up to expectations in the tournament so far.
Across the three games, Abhishek has scored 99 runs at an average of 33, striking at 225.00, with a highest score of 38, including 11 fours and seven sixes. In comparison, Shubman Gill has managed just 35 runs in three innings, averaging 17.50 with a strike rate of 145.83.
