When we see an athlete
do well, we often overlook the hard work. After a successful season in the IPL
with Sunrisers Hyderabad, Abhishek Sharma was called up to represent India for
the first time at the ongoing 5 match T20I series in Zimbabwe. While he was
dismissed for a duck on his debut, in a matter of 24 hours Abhishek turned it
all around scoring a 46 ball 100 in a splendid inning that saw him hit sixes
all around the Harare Sports Club. While India won by the same number of runs
that came off the bat of the southpaw from Punjab, his mentor saves the highest
praises for him
Having been mentored by
Yuvraj Singh for several years now, the 24-year-old left hander had to be a six
hitter just like Yuvi in his prime. Sharing a heartfelt video that shows the
countless hours of work Abhishek has put in behind the scenes — from high intensity
training sessions to long hours in the nets — Yuvraj’s reel shows just how proud
he is of Abhishek. With the caption reading “Rome wasn’t built in a day.
Congratulations on the journey to your first International 100, Many more to
come '' Yuvraj celebrated the first signs of success for Abhishek as he donned the Indian blue. Check out the
efforts Sharma puts in behind the scenes and get inspired for your next work
out.
