Abhishek Sharma Breaks World Record, Tops ICC T20I Batting Rankings with 926 Points

Abhishek Sharma Breaks World Record, Tops ICC T20I Batting Rankings with 926 Points

[ Poll: QyEXaDw6 ]

Abhishek Sharma has set a new world record in the latest ICC T20I rankings after his brilliant batting in the Asia Cup. He scored 314 runs in seven matches with an average of nearly 45 and a strike rate of 200.

His performance not only helped him keep the No. 1 spot in T20Is but also gave him the highest rating ever achieved by a batter in this format. The 25-year-old currently boasts of 926 rating points and is on top of the ICC T20I rankings for batters. He went past England's Dawid Malan who achieved the highest rating of 919 points and held the record before.

Interestingly, Abhishek had soared up to 931 rating points after his 61-run knock against Sri Lanka in the final Super Four encounter. But in the final against Pakistan, he couldn’t deliver with the bat and was dismissed by Faheem Ashraf after scoring just five runs while chasing 147.

Even though Tilak Varma played a match-winning innings in the final, he couldn’t move up to second place. He is currently at number three in the latest rankings, just 25 points behind England’s Phil Salt, who is in second spot. On the other hand, India’s captain Suryakumar Yadav had a disappointing Asia Cup with the bat, scoring only 72 runs in six matches at an average of about 14. Because of this, he has dropped two places and is now ranked eighth with 698 points.
