**Mumbai, India –** Abhishek Sharma etched his name into Indian cricket history on Sunday, smashing a record-breaking 135 runs off just 54 balls during the fifth T20I against England at the Wankhede Stadium. His innings obliterated Shubman Gill’s previous record of 126, set against New Zealand earlier this year.

Sharma’s explosive performance included a staggering 13 sixes, a new Indian T20I record. He also achieved the second-fastest fifty and second-fastest century by an Indian in the format. His innings ultimately ended when he was caught by Jofra Archer off an Adil Rashid delivery.
