saransh Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) Just wanted to call this shot out by Abhishek, Archer is continuously bowling between 145-150k's and he just steps out and drive's him over cover for a six like a spinner!! This is just an insane shot, just the guts and courage to step out to someone bowling at 150k's deserves applause and this guy just stepped out and drove him over covers like a spinner! Unreal talent! One of the best shots I have seen in recent times! Edited February 2 by saransh Vk1, nevada, Need4Speed and 4 others 7 Link to comment

Ultimate_Game Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 He did the same multiple times in IPL against everyone. He and Jaiswal need to be the openers in WT20 next year. Manucrick, BacktoCricaddict, express bowling and 2 others 5 Link to comment

Am still waiting for Jaiswal to get in ODIs. Abhishek will come in a lot later. Number, Manucrick, tapandrun and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 This used to be Ganguly's pet shot. Giving a bit of room and thrashing through off side. When you open both sides you are impossible to bowl to. One reason Suresh Raina was so effective in teh end overs. He could open both sides. raki05, TheBull, rollingstoned and 3 others 1 5 Link to comment

Bat down swing a bit like him. But Yuvraj doesn't have full follow-through all the time. Sometimes he just checks and stops. YUvi had a lot more brute power and timing. Ganguly used to play like that against Pollock. THis is one of a great off side display. THe way he thrashes AKram through off side is sublime https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6EubDk-hKA Link to comment
Bigg Brother Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Whole innings was masterclass. Hardly any mishit, was picking pacers' slower ones and Rashid's googlies like genius. All the shots were proper, India might have cracked jackpot in the form of Abhishek. Link to comment

Throwaib_Chuckter Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 (edited) Though the track was relatively benign, it was an innings played with poise. I mostly liked his shot selection and placement(s). If his step outs become unpredictable combined with standard shot-making it will be a nightmare for most bowlers. Edited February 4 by Throwaib_Chuckter Link to comment
Chamsi Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Let’s all remember what’s happening to this Sharma. We can’t have another Sharma opener, it’s the same arc all over again. Mohit, Rohit, Karan all have the same f*cking arc. Link to comment
Vk1 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 If Gill doesn't try to go in Kohli's footsteps.. it will be breathtaking to see both Gill and Abhi playing together in shorter formats Link to comment
