Abhishek Sharma Equals Sanju Samson's Embarrassing Record, Joins Unwanted List After 3rd Duck In A Row

In a disappointing turn of events for Indian cricketer Abhishek Sharma, he has matched an unwanted record previously held by Sanju Samson after recording his third consecutive duck in T20 Internationals (T20Is) this year. With his latest dismissal, Sharma has accumulated a total of five ducks in T20Is in 2026, placing him among the top openers with the most ducks in a single calendar year within this format. This feat highlights the challenges Sharma faces in his batting consistency, raising concerns among fans and cricket analysts alike about his performance. Given the competitive nature of T20 cricket, where quick runs are crucial, Sharma's struggle to find form may impact his position in the team as selectors evaluate players ahead of upcoming series. The record serves as a reminder of the pressures faced by athletes at the international level, where scoring runs is essential for maintaining one's place in the squad. As the cricketing season progresses, Sharma will be looking to turn his fortunes around and regain his form to contribute effectively to the team's performance.
