Abhishek Sharma Backing India Ahead South Africa Clash
Abhishek Sharma is still an important figure in the plans of India, as the team gears up to face their Super Eight match against South Africa. Suryakumar Yadav, who is the captain, continues to believe in the young opener despite a lean patch, as the player has delivered three ducks in the tournament consecutively.
Suryakumar dismissed the form concerns of Abhishek talking to media. He claimed that the team is in full support of him and has confidence in his innate game. I am concerned about those people concerned about the physique of Abhishek, Suryakumar jested. “Why are they so concerned? I imagine the opponents who are going to play him. He has not made any points yet,–and when he makes points, you know what happens.
The skipper emphasized that these phases are normal in the game of cricket. His point was that the focus of the team is to make Abhishek play in his own style without being pressurised. Suryakumar further explained that they had previously in the previous year assisted players who were going through difficult moments and they would do the same to Abhishek.
Bringing in Sanju Samson as a replacement was questioned but Suryakumar rejected it with humour. He further observed that the team is doing well in the powerplay, and 40-50 runs are being registered on a regular basis.
The management of India is quite obvious: it is most important to be patient and confident. Abhishek Sharma has demonstrated that he knows how to operate under pressure and he remains calm in the tough moments and the executives think that he can turn the tide at any given time. His anchoring skills and flair playing might be crucial against South Africa who will seek to capitalize on any vulnerability in the top order.
