Abhishek Sharma Aims to Honor Yuvraj Singh's Legacy in T20I Series

Indian opener Abhishek Sharma expressed his admiration for former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh's iconic 6 sixes in an over during the ICC T20 World Cup 2007, as he arrived in Kingsmead, Durban for the upcoming T20I series against South Africa. Yuvraj's explosive display against England, where he smashed 58 runs off just 16 balls, has been a source of inspiration for Sharma. Reflecting on Yuvraj's remarkable feat, Sharma shared his excitement about playing at the same ground and expressed his desire to make the legendary cricketer proud. "I've come here for the first time but when I saw it for the first time on TV and now I'm here so it's a dream come true," Sharma emphasized. He also conveyed his confidence that Yuvraj Singh will be watching him play in Durban, a moment that would fulfill a childhood dream of being recognized by his idol.
