Ajit Agarkar: The Indian team is currently on a tour of Zimbabwe. Here they have to play a five-match T20 series. The first match of the series was played yesterday. India's young team had to face a crushing defeat in this match. Let us tell you that on this tour, the command of the team has been handed over to the young player Shubman Gill.

However, his captaincy in international cricket started with a defeat. Let us tell you that in the first match, one player disappointed the most. Ajit Agarkar had shown a lot of faith in him and selected him in the team, but he failed miserably to live up to all those expectations.

Did Ajit Agarkar make a mistake by selecting this player?

Team India's campaign on the Zimbabwe tour started with a defeat. The host team surprised everyone by defeating the world champion team in the first match. During this match, everyone had high hopes from many young players of the Indian team that they would perform well. One of these names was that of young batsman Abhishek Sharma.

However, this left-handed batsman failed to make an impact on the big stage. The 23-year-old batsman came to open the innings. Abhishek returned to the pavilion after playing 4 balls. During this time his account was not even opened. Abhishek Sharma got caught by Wellington Masakadza on a bouncing ball from Brian Bennett.

Got a chance in the team on the basis of IPL

Abhishek Sharma's bat roared fiercely during the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League. Playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad, the young batsman played 16 matches. In this, he scored 484 runs at a strike rate of 204.22. A total of 7 half-centuries came from Abhishek's bat in IPL 2024.

Along with Travis Head, the young player from Punjab had thrashed the bowlers fiercely. On this basis, the selection committee led by Ajit Agarkar gave him a place in the 15-member Indian squad for the T20 series against Zimbabwe. It remains to be seen how he performs in the upcoming matches.
