Abhishek is one of India's star batters, who grabbed the limelight during the ICC U-19 World Cup in 2018 under his captaincy, where the team also had Shubman Gill and Arshdeep Singh. He made his debut last year in a bilateral T20I series against Zimbabwe after having a dream run in the IPL while playing for SRH.
“…we had a plan that we wanted to play a game, that we had to show intent from the first ball. So that was my plan, I worked really hard on that," Abhishek told reporters in the post-match press conference.

“And if you’re playing like this, you need special support from your coach and captain. I think that was the one thing I was getting from them throughout the tournament, before this as well. So obviously, my plan was pretty much clear that, you know, if I do well, if I get that impact, and it’s for my team, my team should win," he concluded.
