Aiden Markram, the South African captain, has singled out Abhishek Sharma as the main danger before the T20I series that is to come. The flamboyant Indian batsman has very few matches where he could not be a contender, and Markram sees him as a player who is a big concern, to say the least.
Markram’s earlier stint with Abhishek at the Sunrisers Hyderabad franchise has lent him much-needed insight into the 25-year-old’s strengths and weaknesses. This interaction has further solidified Markram’s regard for the Indian batter, who, through his stellar journey in both international and domestic cricket, has become one of the most feared powerplay hitters in the world.
“Abhishek Sharma is a match-winner” – Aiden Markram
“It’s probably just the fearlessness, being given complete licence to take the game on from ball one, Some players you almost just want them to spread their wings and take the game on. If they come off, the team is in a really strong position. The game is moving in that direction.” Markram added.
