Abhishek, who is a regular member of India’s T20I team, played all three T20Is for India in the away series against Zimbabwe but could only score 1, 8 and 2 runs. He faced a fair amount of criticism for his below-par performance with the bat during the away assignment.
Abhishek will next be seen in action for India at the 2026 Asian Games, which are set to take place in Japan in September 2026.
